I apologized to my fellow team members for taking over the classroom.
“Why would you apologize?” They asked. “I’m so happy that you loved it so much!”
I felt so encouraged from my team; I couldn’t ask for a better one.
This week I have learned that I cared for these children and that it is possible for me to make connections with kids. God has taught me that if I listen to Him and leave my comfort zone, I might find something that opens my eyes in new ways.
I don’t know if God has called me to be a teacher or anything in that nature; but I do know that He has given me a new perspective on life, the courage to step out and be more confident in Him, and to have the confidence in what He has called me to do for this trip.
The English camp at the school was only two days, so we had to say our goodbyes. I was so sad to leave my class, but I hope that our team has planted a seed in their hearts about His love. I am so thankful we had the opportunity to freely share the gospel with the children, and I pray that the teachers saw His light through us as well.
Before we left, all of the kids in my school had a big surprise for us. They pulled pages of heart shaped stickers out of their little pockets and came running towards us.
The children started showering us head-to-toe with their little hearts; now my heart is stuck with them.
Blessings, Sarah Bell
