Bible Club and Crusade Experiences

Today was day four and the final day of bible club and it was very successful but also very sad.  Friendships we had with the children were the kinds of bonds that would normally take much longer than just four days.  At the end we provided each child a bible along with their crafts and an invitation to the crusades that would occur that night, their faces were priceless. 
In the afternoon the team split into two groups, one group staying to finish construction and one to an orphanage.  When we arrived there were about 15 children that we were able to share the gospel with.  We sang songs with them, had time for special acts, and also had a time to work with them in arts and crafts. 


Lastly, as a whole group we went to the last night of the crusades.  After a few of the local praise and worship songs we got to sing to songs with the kids from bible club.  We also were able to listen to a steel drum and listen to our pastor Clint preach about the healing by Jesus. Over ten people accepted Jesus into their hearts as their Lord and Savior and entered his family, many of which were there at bible club and the other nights of the crusades.  Being the last day of planned ministry in Trinidad it was a blessing from God that we were able to plant so many seeds in the hearts of the people we encountered and I know that God will continue to work in them every day.
