Running Fast and Patience
6:30 AM-Wake up! Time to eat breakfast so we can do devotions! Today was a run-out-the-door kinda day. As soon as we were finished with devotions, we jumped in the bus, practiced our team song for only the second time before we had to perform it in front of a school´s chapel service- no pressure! Arriving exactly when the service started, we basically jumped on stage and began our program! We sang our song, Vengo Adorarte (Here I am to Worship). Elizabeth Fox played with her younger brother Daniel, There's Power in the Blood. We did the Shiny Lure skit, that skit is always funny! Immediately after the service, we were mobbed with kids asking for our autographs, and phone numbers, and emails.After an afternoon visit to a natural preserve, we got back to Quito for our afternoon kids' program. Even with the larger number of kids that we had tonight compared to other days (about 60-70 kids are showing up every day now), it seemed that this was the smoothest day yet. Tonight´s character quality was patience, and the kids seem have received it well. The group I´m in charge of is craft #2 with Lorrianne Barclay as my partner; we made butterflies and learned that we can't rush what God has placed in our lives. The large group skit was the bubblegum treasure skit, teaching us that true treasure is worth waiting for.Drew Gaddis for the team
