English Classes and Basketball (video)
I went up to the community centre today and took some video of the interns teaching English and basketball. Here’s a quick 1 minute and 45 seconds from the afternoon, to show you what’s going on…
Centro Cultural Tiempo de Vivir
Context – Community Centre and Meeting Place (video)
Decided to show you a little bit of context today. In this video you’ll be able to see what the community centre looks like now from the outside, and part of it from the inside. Also, you can see the building (on the outside) where we meet on Sunday mornings (and other times – like for the women’s Bible study Tuesday mornings and the Chronological Bible Study Tuesday nights) and the street where it lives. Just a quick look! 🙂
Children’s Day Event 2010 (video)
On the 1st of May, our new community centre in Jesùs María, Ixtapaluca (the community centre is now called "Tiempo de Vivir") hosted a Children’s Day event.
Children’s Day in Mexico is on the 30th of April, but of course there are events all around that time. The day landed on a school day, so there were big parties in both our children’s schools.
But let’s get back to the event in Jesùs María, which was the next day (Saturday). The event was a big success. We had lots of amazing help from all sides – people really gave to make this event happen! Shari was heavily involved, being in charge of children’s ministry in the church.
About 150-180 children were there, plus all the adults, so it was a big crowd. It was also a very windy day, as you’ll see. So that made things interesting!
Anyway, thanks to those of you who prayed! Here’s a few minutes from the day so you can see what it was like:
