We ended this morning our 5 points in prayer by seeing that God wants a relationship with us,
that He adopted us. We can share our heart with Him ask His help for our own life. The rest of the morning they evaluated the group discussions from yesterday about relation ships. And we had as staff, one on one talks with several children. I went together with Petra, with one boy to the eye doctor in the hospital and they removed a piece of thorn out of his eye! Another boy needed to go for new ARVs, so we did that as well
In the evening we had a meeting together and we had the opportunity to bring our fears, struggles and mistakes to the cross. We wrote them on a pieces of paper and later we burned them together. It was a very meaningful time together and I know that some of the children really did a big step in faith.
After this we had communion together. Tomorrow morning they all go home, back to their lives, I believe they are changed, I pray they can handle the situation better at home. I am amazed about the openness of the children, they really wanted to share and we could give advice and encouragement. But they have to do it themselves. We will evaluate this week together as staff and we want to learn from it. But this will be part of our yearly activities.
