Well, at long last we had the SWEET opportunity to venture a couple hours out into the bush of Burkina Faso and camp out in a little village by the name of Yaabo! After setting up camp, watching one sweet sunset, and having dinner in the dark with the locals, we camped out under the stars as the cool night air dropped to almost 75 degrees.......yeah.......a very sticky 75 degrees at that!
The following morning we all got up, had our sugar laced oatmeal (non traditional), and headed off to do our outreach with the kids! As we arrived we only noticed about five kids, but as soon as we began blowing up balloons and making some noise - they came from all over! With songs, skits, balloons, and bubbles we made sure everyone had a blast and a chance to hear the gospel! It was a sweet taste of just how easy childrens ministry can be out here in the villages of Burkina Faso!
