Noche de las Naciones

Thursday night in the jungle was Noche de las Naciones, or the Parade of Nations. Each of our students selected a country to represent. They wore the traditional apparel of that nation and shared some facts and prayer requests about each nation. Additionally, Mrs. Kadle and some student helpers prepared the evening's meal with a menu that consisted of food items from various countries around the world.

Not only was this a fun and informative event, it was a great outreach opportunity. Earlier that day, the ladies on our team went in to town with the ladies from Ninawachi to invite the families from the community to attend the event. The ladies must have done a great job because the Ninawachi school house was full! Mark, one of the missionaries there, said that there were people who attended that had never set foot on the property. God opened doors for the missionaries to reach these people because of the work of our students!

I was very impressed with our students. They were prepared, had engaging facts to share, presented meaningful prayer requests, and were very welcoming to all who attended. It was a great way to end our time in the jungle.
