Holding outreach activities impresses on me that sharing a part of what we have was more fulfilling than eating ice cream. Even just one day, seeing the children happy through games they played, the story they've heard , and through the lessons taught them how to properly wash their hands and brush their teeth,, the ice cream they ate, fight packs they received, prizes they've won scan give a sense of fulfillment- thought this, we can share God's love to others.
I personally enjoyed the company of the kids who actively participated in the games and showed their willingness to learn.
As I read to the kids, I saw in their eyes the excitement not just to be entertained , but also to learn and be enlightened by the story.
I saw how even the parents were delighted that their kids enjoyed the many presents they received. I'm sure that the school supplies would be of good use in their learning process. Each face had story to tell, each carrying a hope for a brighter future. The kids in the community may come from different families; they may gave different dreams and interests; but , no matter all that, I believe in these kids will soon grow up and find their own places in society. And even just for a few hours I am glad that we were a part of their journey
