An Exciting Day at Amazing Grace of Christ Primary School!

Amazing Grace of Christ School children greeting SYI Team
Today was an especially happy day!  We arrived at the Amazing Grace of Christ Church, School & Orphanage to a seige of happy, happy children!  They were all lined up on both sides of the road - we had to exit the van in order to walk to the school.  They were singing and smiling and clapping - so happy to see us!  This school is truly marked by joyful happiness and abundant peace.  It is the school, church and orphanage that Daniel & Prossie Male founded.  What a wonderful experience!  I have posted some videos and pictures below that tell more than I could in a million words.

The SYI Team brought many toys, balloons, balls, and food.  We fed them rice & beef - a special treat usually reserved for holidays like Christmas & Easter.  They were very thrilled.  The children all received a "sweetie" (candy) and sweet biscuits, too.  Of course, teachers and helpers received as well.

This isn't the best video and I can't get the others uploaded, but it will give you an idea the food Daniel was able to purchase for the school.  Sorry about the audio, too - the little Flip camera I used wasn't too powerful in the audio.

Rice & beef for the children - oh happy day!

Jump rope - what fun!  What energy!

We will be at Kikyusa today meeting with pastors and members of Daniel's church.  Lots of speaking, praying, worship, and visiting - looking forward to it!
