Mission Minded Kids Rally

On Saturday we had the privilege of being real, live missionaries for about 80 kids at our denomination's annual Mission Minded Kids Rally here at the seminary in Myerstown. We gave a 10 minute mini-presenation on Spain five times to five different groups of kids from various E.C. churches (that's what I'm doing in the picture above). We were really impressed with some of the ideas and questions these youngans had about Spain and the need for Spaniards to know Jesus.

The coolest part for us, though, is what you can see in the picture below. After we gave our presentation, the kids and their leaders filled out forms to let us know who they are, what they like to do, and that they will be praying for us on a specific day this fall. In turn, they gave us prayer requests so that we can pray for them on that day, as well. It's a pretty snazzy program the E.C. Church has called "Spend-A-Day," which helps build relationships between churches and missionaries. Two thumbs up for the Mission Minded Kids Rally!
