This was our 2nd meeting with the girls in Grade 7 at Obed Primary School.
1. We made name tags using the Gospel presentation:
Gold: Streets of gold in Heaven where God lives
Gray: Our problem of sin, we can't get to God on our own
Red: Jesus' blood shed on the cross for us
White: Believing in Jesus we can have a clean heart
Green: Grow by reading the Bible, praying and going to church
Pray that the girls would understand and accept Jesus as Lord of their lives.
2. We had girls come up and share John 3:16 that we challenged them last week to memorize. We surprised the 3 girls that were able to say it with sweeties (candy). Pray that the girls would hide the Word in their hearts so that when they are troubled they can remember that God loves them.
3. Amber shared the story of Esther. We encouraged the girls to be courageous just as Esther stood up and saved her people. We talked straight forward about issues dealing with alcohol, drugs and sex and how they need to stand up and do what is right. Pray that the girls would be strong and resist peer pressure and these temptations. And please pray for their safety.
4. We took the girls outside to play soccer, netball and paint nails. One of the girls is the captain of the soccer team so she was very organized. Amber and I attempted to play netball with the girls. I enjoyed standing around talking with the girls... playing with hair, learning to dance and trying to speak Zulu. Pray that as we love on these girls, that we would be good examples of women who love the Lord and live for Him.
