21st November- (2 months and 3 days!)

Hellooo, This week has been busybusybusy!
I have got 3 paid jobs! woowoop! I clean windows for one job and babysit for three families! Lush times :P
Someone came up to me in church and said I looked bored, would I like to clean her windows and get paid? I thought fair enough... she has a Penthouse! 15 floors up and I have to stand on a stepladder to clean the top of the outside windows...  don't look down! But it was good arm work out ;) (dead arms the next day!!)


    The stepladder...


 The drop!

I'm glad that I finally have things to look forward to, I feel that even though these are fairly simple tasks, I'm being kept busy so boredom is slowly evaporating ...
Sunday school last week was good... I had freedom to lead it and choose what I would like to teach. So themed it on the Footprints poem. (Thankyou ctc!) I find the poem very inspirational and can relate to it most the time! =P
The children had to draw around their feet and colour them in =] They read the poem and took mini versions home and made their own "feet prayers." 
They then went up the front at the end of the service and showed the congregation what they done. (One small boy clung to my leg the whole time!cuteee) It was a good sunday school! ^^ very proud...




My foots on there somewhere... I have small feet compared to half the kids! lol
... "When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."



All week we have been planning a Messy Church service calling it "Family Fun Church" and we themed it on the Jesus the light of the World which turned out quite well! Mirrors and candles...make a tunnel of everlasting light!
Below are the arts and crafts... Light themed




 Lanterns
Lighthouse

Children preparing food!



Cuteeee... (Notice boy on left- painted nails! He clung onto my leg at sunday school..)


The kids play with the big kid ( aka me! )

The service turned out quite well... During the sermon, the speaker asked the congregation, "What's a prophet?" and a little girl raises her hand and says, "Is that the amount of money you make from something??"
xD lol  At the end we all sat together and ate the salad and russian salad the children had ordered and the pizza delivered from pizza hut. There was a strong sense of unity and I look forward to planning the christmas themed Family Fun Service in a months time!

Today in Sunday school the theme was Christ the King... so the children had to design crowns and one would be named the winner...
...I want a crown!


Anyways I'm babysitting and window cleaning again next week followed by more sunday school!
Two of my friends are also flying over on Thursday XD (pray for their safe journey over please!)

They fly back Sunday which I will join them doing so for a University Interview! Yay! Home ^^
So please please please pray that goes okay! =]
I hope I don't freeze to death when I return hehe...
Thankyou for reading and thanks for your prayers =] keep them coming! I hope to update you all soon!
Over and Out x
