A team from Christ Community Church leading the children's program



Every January, the SIM Peru missionaries meet in Lima for our annual Spiritual Life Conference. While the adults are in meetings, the children and teens have a program like a vacation Bible school. This year, Christ Community Church of Omaha, sent a team of 7 adults to 'ride herd' over all of the kids. They sang, studied the Bible, played games and did science experiments. It really is true: if you put a Mento in a Coke, it will cause an impressive explosion!

The team did a fantastic job, and kids and adults alike were blessed by them. It was great to see people from home, and I was proud that they are from our home church. It doesn't come without risks: word of our week of 'suffering for Christ' at the beach in perfect weather could make it back home and people won't feel very sorry for us!
