Our second day in Reynosa started by taking most of the team to Pastor Valenti’s church to put on a 90 minute Children’s Bible School (CBS). Education is very important here, so the children attend school, some in the morning and some in the afternoon. We were not sure how many kids not in school would come to our CBS, but hoped for the best and prepared to start at 9:30 for whomever came. At first only 23 kids arrived, but more continued to come in (we even bused in a few from the colonea of site 2), and in the end 40 kids had a great time with us.
The morning included singing….
Dancing….
Mascot characters…
Crafts…
puppets…
and games. (Nice of Diana in the bright blue shirt to give these kids a head start!)
How many will come tomorrow? Not sure… we expect many more than today as the word gets out.
