Our Day Camp plus 2 extra

We had a Day Camp on February 16 in which Katie and Ellen conducted a time of singing, a flannelgraph story, games and refreshments. The pictures loaded the opposite of what I expected, so they are the opposite of chronological order. This is the group of children who got tagged and were out of the game. We were lined up on the stairs to the Library.
This is the beginning of the game where Katie is explaining the rules. Dian is catching 2 little ones that needed to be somewhere else so they didn't get mowed down by the children running from the back wall to the opposite side of the court trying to not get tagged.


This is Ellen giving the flannelgraph lesson. She chose Nehemiah. There were about 25 children when she was finished with the lesson. The day was a great success and the children all wanted to do it again the next Monday. We decided once a month was good. We will have another on March 16th. Pray for these children. Several have come to the services. They come to the Library too and always ask, "Where are Ellen and Katie?"


This is our neighbor, Kenneth, taking his donkey cart out to the main road to sell his food. This is as close as you get to "fast food" here in Corriverton. I shouldn't say that as we do have a Church's Chicken in town. I took this from the Library window. I want to get a picture of him on location but haven't had my camera ready at the right time.
In all fairness to Ellen, I felt I needed to post a picture of Katie in one of her study poses, too. She is out on the court. They both will plop down on the ground most anywhere to sit and relax or study. Ellen likes to go to the sea wall.
