Another Sunday in Coalane


Here is the view from my seat in the truck, looking back at my girls.
They were so excited that the cab of the truck was full...meaning....they could ride in the back going to church.
This is the road going down to the church.

Children's Sunday School at the church in Coalane grew again this past Sunday. We had over 60 kids!! It was very crazy, but good. We saw a difference in how Emma and Lilly interacted with the children. Our children and the children in the village are slowly getting more comfortable and less intimidated by each other.


This is the group that was there from the beginning of the lesson.
 More came right up to the time when Sally was finishing everything.
There was one little girl, maybe about 3 years old that started crying inside the church where the adult were having SS. Her mother walked her out to us. I grabbed her hand and walked her to where Emma was sitting. I said, "Emma, I have a little friend. Can you help her?" Emma said, "Sure". About 2 minutes later Emma had her in her lap and was helping her color. Emma kept the biggest smile on her face the rest of the time!


Her smile = purpose
The Bible story was about Jonah
Coloring Jonah and the big fish
Lilly.....in the middle of the other children....that was new this week
