Impact Outreach Ministries-Friday 28th July 2006
(Day 7)
Seven marks the day of completion and as the sun
rose for a brief moment the final day of D. V. B. S drew to a close.
And the dawn of the Prison Ministry began with three: (Travis, Kerwin,
and Michael) going off to the prison. O’neal encouraged us
to remember that we have within us treasure and power that we could
draw upon at this critical time. We must recognize our worth we
were compared to sheep and eagles and reminded we need to be careful
how we treated our temple… Therefore we were encouraged to
take vitamins as well to help maintain our energy.
Bro Terrance did the closing of D. V. B. S. The curtain came down
in grand style with a summary and a bible quiz. These candidates
were selected as the best-behaved individuals within D. V. B. S.
The winner of this challenged immerged as Myana Fraser of the intermediate
class (may I say of whom, I was one of the teachers accompanied
by Delores Benjamin). She therefore received the challenged trophy
and was encouraged to take care of it until next year, this same
time. Upon this ending all craft was completed and once again it
was time for fellowship and refreshments.
Entered the Trinidadians and the main questions,
“who are they, what do they look like”, came to mind
first. Then most importantly the notion of reinforcements was coming
to strengthen the arm. We were at first a bit reserved and on reaching
back to base, and on finding two very mature women in our room.
Then over coming our anxieties we introduced ourselves and got prepared
for youth service concert.
Youth meeting … ministry
wide and varied, couldn’t help wondering if this was how
it was on the day of Pentecost…and how beautiful heaven
must be for us all to fellowship and exalt His name together.
Let us all continue to run the Christian race, so that we would
see each other on the other side.
There were specials by the St. Vincent arm, mime
and drama by the Trinidadian arm, and not to forget the Barbadian
arm. In all it was truly a night to remember. Then it was back to
base to receive our instructions for the day ahead.
