I expect that God would be glorious among us

It was second time to give jamboree but I was nervous. I wondered that I did my duty completely on last Saturday. There was a heavy heart that I must not miss witnessing the gospel before everyone in my heart. Because I thought that there is lack of saying message of God, yet God let me know witnessing for Him is just little obedience, today.

It could be hard to MS.HT this week because she is discipline teacher of elementary school alone. She was sick, so miss. L, Grace and I three went to the Aqua Resort. It was two children’s birthday.

Preparing the jamboree was not so hard to carry stuff into the party hall like last time, for some people helped us. The jamboree was started after eating. The children’s mother and sister led this party including the Coconut Jamboree with microphone in front of the hall. Their father was the worship leader of a church, so most of the invited were Philippines of the G members. There were children more than last time.

It was very sunny and hot day, yet we were in cool hall. Nevertheless, we were very busy and tired. We have played the puppets 5-6 times and have painted face painting during the people in this party enjoying many games. The simple fact that they have had a lot of fun made me happy. I have tried drawing face painting as a first time. I was supposed to share about Jesus to the children, yet I could share just one of two things since I had to concentrate to draw carefully. Most of them were Sunday school students, but I wanted to pray for them. It was almost a Sunday school. :)

I was sad little bit since the party was very very luxury. I surprised to learn they spend lots of money for even one-year-old baby’s birthday party. Christians have to spend their money for really important thing, the kingdom of God.

God lets me be in their community and leads me to know them little by little with joining this jamboree. I am happy to know that God is working through our obeying even though we cannot make sure everything because of language and culture. Father, be glorious among every community in Saipan also!
