Meeting Christ

As the music blared throughout Pastor Maria’s village, kids came from all over to hear Bible stories, play games, sing, and learn what it means to follow Jesus Christ. The kids loved hearing about Jonah, Noah and Daniel, and the important lessons they still teach us today. Lessons about obedience, faith, prayer, and what can happen when we run away from God. Remember the whole whale "situation?"

Our Thrive Africa mission team did a great job of teaching Biblical truths in a way that was fun, memorable, and kid-friendly...something that kids don't really experience in their home churches. And in a few short days they impacted these young ones for a lifetime. Not only did the children learn about Jesus Christ, but they also met Him through each of the team members.
