Backpack Outreach!

Today was the Backpack Outreach and it was so much fun!  We had kids club as normal--a mission group from the World Race Team (a team traveling to 11 different countries over the next 11 months) played games and entertained the kids by acting out the story of David and Goliath.  We then made crafts which were magnets of Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." and we talked about how God gives us strength during the school year as well.  We then had snacks and all of the kids sat down and we talked about how the backpacks are a gift from the Lord and we thanked God for the blessing of these gifts.  After this, the distribution began.  It was such a joy to see the faces of these kids as they received their backpacks!  I had so much fun loving and hugging on all of these precious kids after receiving their packs.  We had someone give us a donation to cover all of the school supplies this year and we were able to supply the kids with everything they need to go to school!  God is so amazing!!!  We praise Him for blessing us to be a blessing!!!
