After our shopping stop, Javier drove us over a range of mountains surrounding San Jose to a Methodist church in Llano Grande where our group conducted VBS with about 38 children and parents. Gathering 38 children to get their photos taken was a challenge for Ann L. but she persevered.
The activities began with Will Faircloth reading a story to the children (at least those who would sit still); the children then proceeded to four stations where they worked on crafts --
butterflies from Costa Rica, churches from the USA,
panda masks from China,
and a really popular parachute game representing South Africa. Great fun was had by all and after a cup of coffee and sweet pancakes prepared by the pastor's wife we returned home through the misty mountains.
It is so fun following your experiences!! Thank you for creating this blog. I thoroughly enjoy reading about what you all are up to each day! Thinking of you and sending love, Kim, Genet and Simenesh! :)
