Today was filled with surprises and blessings. First, this morning the children expressed
themselves during creative time by painting water color pictures of the Bible
Story. Each day, the focus of the
stories is on how Jesus transforms/changes lives through His power. At night, the children share with the big
group what their pictures mean. Amazing
how much detail the children remember and share regarding what they have learned.
During recreation, the children’s favorite game seemed to be
the two persons in a hoop relay race.
They were really focused on the race.
Over/under is one of their favorite games, although 18 per team made for
a long game of over/under.
The highlight of the day was the Gypsy Children’s Camp
Invitational World Cup soccer match between the Apalina International Team and
the Local Village People team. The
Apalina team jumped out to a quick 6-1 lead.
Late in the game, the Local Village People team staged a rally to close
the gap to 6-4. But, in the end, the
chants and songs of victory by the Apalina team rang through the valley and
echoed in the mountains. Rumor was a
rematch might come but the Local Village People Team decided not face the
champions.
Every night, the children share their songs and
pictures. The leadership team provides
testimony by the leaders. Attila or
Floyd brings a message related to the theme.
Zozo is “reintroducing” traditional Gypsy Gospel songs to the
children.
