Bump Adventures at Payne Ave.

We have had an amazing week here at Payne Avenue! The first day we had over 40 kids come out and more kids have been coming each day inviting their friends, family, and neighbors.

From prayer walks in some nice hot Minnesota weather to singing VBS songs and making crafts, it has been quite the adventure. God is doing some great things in many unexpected ways. Wednesday was what felt like the longest day however we were excited to have the most number of kids yet! 70 kids!!!

Yesterday was what one of our students called "Warfare Thursday". It was a hard day with many of our students being tired and kids not listening. Yet in the midst of the chaos God was still at work in the hearts of the kids. One of our students was able to personally lead a little girl to Christ for the first time who she has been building a relationship with from last year, a few other kids also accepted Christ this week so praise God for that.

One lesson we've learned and have put into practice all week is what we like to call "10-90". Life is made up of 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you choose to respond to it. That has been helpful for our group in helping us choose to have positive attitudes even when it gets hard. Looking forward to our last day and our Carnival on Sunday :)
