Kid's Club Day 3

I’m going to start my blog by backtracking to last night when we were handing out the bibles. I was in a group with Keren from New Life Masih Ghar and Mrs. W. We started to talk about a young boy in the youngest group of kids at Kids Camp, the group Keren helps in. He had been having trouble understanding and communicating what he’d been doing. So I told Keren and Mrs. W that I thought he might have a type of developmental disability I am fairly familiar with.  So, I used the little sign language and non-verbal communication I know from working with those who have similar disabilities and tried to communicate with him. It was a great success! I saw him come more and more out of his shell throughout the day. So much so that by the time it came to sing Jesus Loves Me he was willing to sing it as well as do all the hand motions, which are actually Sign Language!  I was up lifted by what seemed like a little task at first and the staff of New Life Masih Ghar were very grateful because they finally know how to communicate a little bit better with him. It is truly amazing how God uses us in ways we truly don’t expect.  As for the rest of Kid’s Camp, the games group played Gaga Ball (inside because of the weather sadly), and the craft and story teams did amazing like always.
