It's Saturday afternoon and I've rested a bit from our puppet program we held this afternoon. As usual, the crowd seemed a bit thin and I began to think it wasn't going to be worth all the effort, O you of little faith! We had some technical problems but Pastor Danny came to the rescue and we got the show going around 12:30. Vashti and team had the stage set up and the moppets went into action. They sang and dance and taught the children about honesty, kindness and over all, God’s love for each one individually. As I watched, more people and kids started arriving and we had to make a run to the church for more chairs. We held the program in front of our neighborhood market and as people came to do their shopping, they stopped by to watch for a while.
One shy little girl watched from the corner of her mother’s store, others stopped their bicycles and others rested for a while as they enjoyed the program. Near the end, Vashti asked if any of the kids were sick and several raised their hands. She had them came up and Pastor Danny prayed not only for their physical health, and that they would lead
honest, godly lives. I never did get a count of how many came, and by the end many had left already, but I know God’s word went forth and I trust many of them will come to the library not only for help with school work, but for a chance to hear more about our marvelous God.
