Excitement at camp

Each day at camp we have sung English songs with motions, Chinese songs, heard 2 true  stories followed with small group discussions, taught 2 English lessons, had breakout sessions like crafts, active games, board games, etc, and had lunch.
Song time.... looks like this:

One lesson today was... What's your favorite flavor? Several kids acted like they didn't know what ice cream was. My co-teacher snuck out and bought ice cream treats for all the kids. It was so much fun to seem them try the treats.

We also enjoyed teaching them dodgeball and kickball.

Hard to believe only 2 more days! I have grown to love several children and they are excited to see us each day.

Happy July 4th from Taiwan!!!

Everyone washes their own dishes.

Interesting concept..... and this washing of bowls and chopsticks happens everywhere! Even in the classroom at school.

Rules

When your set of class rules looks like this, it is hard to remind those misbehaving about which rule they have broken!

On a serious note, I think we need to learn some Taiwanese before we return!

Sunday

It was a great day! Pretty cool to sing the songs in English during worship while others sang in Chinese!!

Thankful one of our teammates volunteered to translate the sermon to us. 

Since Chris leads the youth, Chloe and Timon had the chance to join in today for their meeting. 

Then back to training for all of us. 

Tomorrow starts camp. (8-4 pm M-F. ) 

Then we will do lesson plans for the next day. 

Lift up  that He continues to protect our stomachs. We are eating what is provided. 

Also for the family leading music, that He will spare the virus one of their kids has, from others.

We are having a  blast! (And hot enough to blast off too. Lol)

Day 1 camp

We had a great day!

Lift up for tomorrow-

1. Rain slacks off. Typhoon went beside Taiwan today and rain POURED all day today. (But it did help with the heat today in the classes. )

2. Children and workers are well. (Had a sick child in my class today. And main music leader's child is sick too.)

3. Stories are told with clarity and hearts receive them. 

4. We all 4 taught English today! As we have prepared for a new lesson tomorrow, help us be energetic and able to hold kids' attention. (Language barrier is a little tough for us. )

This is photo of classes of children arriving to our first activity. 

Too tired to write it all, but will send more tomorrow. 

Day 1 starting!!!

Quick look at one class.
