Matthew 25:37-40

"Then the righteous will answer him, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?"

"The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'" ~Matthew 25:37-40

They Did It!!

"The Girls" did it! They went to school and shared in front of a class of kiddos their heart for Africa. Neither of the girls is super outgoing in front of a group but by God's grace they did it! They shared the stories posted on this blog of how this mission started and the things they have come up with to earn money. They will post in a few days the ideas they have come up with so far.

Here is the map that they took into school to show the kids where the horn of Africa is.
Obviously, one of the dad's is an art teacher...

Then, they made book marks for the kids and teachers to ask them to pray for the people in Africa. They worked so hard writing on and decorating them. The moms laminated them and added the ribbon. The girls even picked out the bible verse and pictures to go one the book marks.

The part that really touched their hearts was on the way home from school, they mentioned the teacher had put a donation in their backpack. They eagerly asked if they could open it up. Inside was a beautiful note and a $20 donation. They we so excited that stepping out to share earned the people of Africa $20. Thank you Mrs. H. for supporting the girls and the mission God has laid on their hearts. So fun to watch them walk this out!
