This summer we started going to Bowne Playground once a week with teams to expand our borders and add some children's ministry to the mix. We have been going Friday afternoons (kids are still in school here) and we set up a little face painting station, do sidewalk chalk, blow bubbles, play basketball, handball, etc! It has been great so far and very busy the past two weeks that we have gone out.
We stay for about 3 hours and encourage teams to share the love of Jesus in their playing and talking. There are also opportunities to share with parents which is great too.
There is a ton of diversity (a language barrier sometimes), so many of these kids are coming from Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu homes and have never heard of Jesus before.
Please join with us in prayer for relationships to be formed as we go weekly, for continued favor with the park staff, and of course that Jesus would be lifted up and draw many to Himself. Thank you!
