Busy past 3 weeks

Wow, what an awesome God we serve!!! Have we ever been busy! Isn't that what serving is all about? I can't begin to tell you how overwhelmingly blessed I am feeling this morning. During my quiet time this morning, God allowed me to reflect on the past 3 weeks of this puppet ministry. Where He leads, we follow. 

Let me begin by starting with the youth trip to Washington, DC. I, unfortunately, was not able to attend. But, what these kids accomplished is just amazing. Seeds for the Kingdom were planted all around. They did an amazing performance on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and led a VBS for the remainder of the week at a local church. If you kindly look back, you will find a post with lots of pictures of their week.

 

Then, as they traveled home, I began my travels over seas to Camp Gideon in Estonia, to help begin a puppet ministry there. I was fortunate enough to take with me 37 adopted puppets that people from First Broad Street UMC (where I work part time as the church secretary and accompanied their team to Estonia) and Sunnyside Baptist(where I attend and worship) graciously sent with me. And, a very special thanks also to Rachel Cole for sending more than 20 small hand puppets that I was able to present to the Sunbeam Center in Johvi, Estonia, that ministers to children with disabilities. 

Here are some pictures of the kids at Camp Gideon having fun with their performance

A very special thanks also to Anne Thurman of Oak Grove Baptist Church (and my boss at FBSUMC) for the beautiful banner for Camp Gideon's Puppet Ministry

I think they caught on very well, don't you?

These puppets are going to be shared with some of the other local churches in Estonia to aid in church story time and to take out to the smaller towns for evangelism. We talked about how easy they are to use to convey the message to children and even adults. It was a wonderful blessing to be able to share ideas with the leaders on how to further use this type of ministry.

And then last night, we helped kick off Kingsport Fun Fest by participating in the Fun Fest Parade. We had a blast!! The kids also took turns passing out tracts and candy and performing on the church bus. There was even room for me to use a puppet!! It was hot and fun!!

Our before shot

What an awesome way to spend the past 3 weeks!! God is good! All the time!
