On May 27th our team helped at a program for street boys in the slums of Kampala.

Taking a group picture with the street boys. |
We taught a bible lesson, gave our testimonies, organized games for them and finished off with face painting and coloring.

Me telling the boys the story of Noah and talking about God's faithfulness in my life. |
20 boys raised their hands to receive Christ after our testimonies and bible story! Wow!
It was amazing to see them all be able to be a kid again. For those 5 hours they didn't have to worry about being hungry, being vulnerable, where to sleep safety, or how to survive.

They really enjoyed everything we did and we saw so many smiles. It was a privilege to see so much joy in them.
They were amazing kids! So sweet and loving. I can't even imagine being in their shoes and living on the streets at night especially. Having no where to call home and no one to care for you. It was heartbreaking to think about. But today they were brought hope. Today they laughed. Today they were loved. The ministry that runs this program does such a great job! All their staff really love the children and are great christian leaders for them. What a great experience!
