We enjoyed worshiping and praising with Vida Abundante this morning! It was great to lift up the Lord as one body together, despite the language barriers. We are grateful for welcoming us, singing worship songs in both English and Spanish, as well as translating the sermon.

This morning a group of us went to a local middle school. Nathanael Greene Middle School houses around 1,300 students. We were able to complete some projects and small jobs that needed to be done before the school year begins. Here we are checking locker combinations and preparing for them to be ready. Since Covid, students have not used the lockers.

We helped clear out some classrooms for them to prepare for the new school year. This included moving desks and chairs up a few floors into a closet.

We had an amazing time with the kids dancing, playing games, eating snacks, making crafts, and of course learning about God, the Creator.

Today we went back to Nathanael Greene Middle School. We helped Ms. Smith with mulching and planting. The mulch piles had been baking in the sun for a while to a point where they were starting small fires.

A highlight of Bible story for the young kids is to make an invisible crown on their heads every time “king” is said in the story.
