Ministry Opportunity

We were blessed to get to volunteer one night at GIVE KIDS THE WORLD. We stayed there almost 9 years ago because of K. They house families of critically ill children and make their dream vacation come true. Everything there is catered to sick children. We were so blessed. I smiled so much, my face hurt. There were several families to whom we were able to minister. Some of the parents recieved so much hope from the thought that they would come back and volunteer some day with their children. We met awesome people from the USA and several other countries. Big K made balloon animals for almost 3 straight hours. K and Sp face painted. Their mickey mouse face with fireworks became quite a hit. Sh helped with the balloon lollipop craft. I got to work in the ice cream shop. I never made so many banans splits in my life!! I also made lots and lots of shakes. It was such a healing time for K. She was very apprehensive about going back. They put every ill child's name on a star and place it on a ceiling. We found K's. We forgot we had let her write on it when she had just turned four! Again we were so blessed! We recieved a special edition candy land that Hasbro has made for the village, because the girls helped with the giant candyland game as well.
