Tonight will be a quick email because we only have a few minutes on
the computer tonight, but what is really exciting is the fact that we
had our first Kids Klub (VBS) tonight.  It was really cool.  Kinda
confusing but we just had to go with the flow.  We got interupted
shortly by some older kids who wanted our sports balls so that was
scary for me at least but no confrontation really happened.  The
translator took care of it.  The kids were so loving, it was amazing
to see.  We wore Biblical constumes and the whole theme was Jerusalem.
 Kinda neat because these kids don't have any idea.  And it's so sad
because they want sooo much for any type of love because their home
life is so bad.  This isn't your normal VBS either because the kids
don't know structure and the resources are limited so kids come in and
out all the time.  One little boy, Dawid (Pronounced like David but
with a little french flair), had mud all over his hands and face and
his front two teeth were all black and he looked like he had had a
shower in days.  He smelled of urine and fecal matter but he was so
loving and sweet you couldn't help but love the boy.  This boy was so
excited to draw on some paper and get a hug by an American that
nothing else mattered that much.  Until you really see these
conditions you can't understand. You can't walk outside without
worrying your feet will be cut by glass.  It's disheartening, but the
moral of the story is that these kids just want love and that's what
we're here to do, so that's amazing to me!  So, until next time...
