Have you ever built a gaga ball pit?

We have!  As many of you already know, last year’s mission trip team built a carpetball table for KIDS Inc’s game room. This year, we offered to build a gaga ball pit. The KIDS Inc. team thought it was a great idea, so we purchased supplies and built a portable gaga ball pit… we finished just in time for it to be introduced at Teen Night this evening. Our prayer is that the gaga ball pit will be used tonight, as well as many nights in the future to help KIDS Inc. reach teens for Christ.  We also completed several other work projects, primarily painting the food pantry, scraping paint, sorting and stacking clothing for an outreach event KIDS Inc is involved with tomorrow, and helping to prepare the building for Teen Night.  We delivered a few more bags of groceries this morning,  and the remaining food and hygiene supplies will be left with KIDS Inc staff to distribute as they continue serving this community.  Teen Night is wrapping up as I write this post, we have spent the last 2 hours playing gaga ball, carpetball, basketball, and just generally hanging out with an awesome group of teenagers from the communities around KIDS Inc. We heard a challenge from Jake, the director of KIDS Inc. and the Gospel was clearly presented. We know that God has the power to change hearts and lives, please join us in praying that the teenagers present tonight would be open to the message shared and would also remain involved with the various ministries of KIDS Inc. throughout the year. We have had a busy week! We have been challenged, stretched, and blessed by the opportunities we have had to serve and interact with everyone here. We will be leaving for home tomorrow morning, please pray for safe travels! The current schedule is to have students picked up at 9 PM on Saturday in the youth center. If we anticipate being more than 15 minutes early/late we will let parents know as soon as possible. Thank you for your prayers! We could not have accomplished everything we did this week without your encouragement and support.
