It wasn’t long afterwards when we made our way outside to start the activities with the children. This day was extremely warm and the sun was more intense than it had been in the past two days. It brought back memories of our first mission trip here with Glacier. All the children were asking for her. They constantly were touching my long hair and posing for photos. Then we brought out the dozen jump ropes – some long some short. The kids grabbed them and start jumping and singing – it was the most exhilarating sight. - 80 children singing and jumping.. Nicole taught them the double dutch using two long jump ropes – they were a bit hesitant about it at first and one by one they tried and eventually a few managed to do it. Pastor Emma even tried his skills and the kids were so excited to see him jumping with them – he truly is loved by each and every one of them. Of course Nicole and the rest of the team jumped while I stood by watching each of the groups perform. At one point we brought out the Twister Game and the Where’s Wado books – the kids loved that.
