Wow, where did the week go! I wanted to post something about last Sunday and then before I knew it, it was almost Friday! So last Sunday, we had our second official team meeting for our mission trip. We spent about 2.5 hours split up into smaller teams to work on the projects we've been assigned.
We have 5 teams total - each working on one piece of the outreach program (the games, the crafts, the main message, the skit and the Sunday School lesson). The main outreach program will be done a few times in villages and orphanages and keep in mind that all of these things center around the message of the cross.
The Sunday School group, however, is working on a lesson that will be presented only once and to a group of kids that presumably already attend Sunday School. That's my group. Our theme is going to be God's love. So far I think we have a pretty good outline of our main points we'd like to make.
So this experience has been interesting thus far although I have to say that sometimes I feel a little left out. Everyone there already knows someone else - either there are married couples, entire families or mother/daughter teams or friends that are going on this journey together. And then there's me :) Don't get me wrong - it's not that anyone has been unkind or anything like that, but it's hard to find where you fit in with a group of people that all seem to know each other already. So I'm hoping and praying that I'll find my place in this group and that God will use me and my gifts where He sees fit.
