Let's Go To Kids Camp!

September was a busy month here in Peru.  Bill & Lena Shrader had a team come from their home district of Ohio and together we had a great time of ministry at one of our Latin America ChildCare schools here in Lima and also up north in Catacaos, Peru!

and Janet - our LACC Assistant
Who remembers going to Kids Camp!?!  Brings back fun memories, doesn't it?!?  Well, this is one kids camp I will never forget... For 3 days we ministered to about 70 kids in 1st - 6th grades! We had such a great time teaching the kids about many great stories in the Bible like: The Parable of the Lost Coin, The Good Samaritan, and The Lost Sheep to name just a few. So, are you ready to go to Kids Camp? 

On your mark!  Get set! Go! 
...Or as we say in Peru... 
¡En sus marcas! ¡Listos! ¡Ya!

Jesus is my Superhero!
Janet, our LACC assistant is very gifted in starting us all off with some fun music & actions to get us ready to hear and obey what God wants to teach us!

The team did a great job with teaching the Bible stories.  We divided the kids up into 2 groups and Lena translated for one group and I translated for the other group.  

We had a powerful time of prayer with the kids and were able to share with them in small groups about matters of guarding your heart and keeping yourself pure and also comforting those who are going through some tough times at home. 

Some of my favorite pics from this year's kids camp...
