Bringing Sunday to the Children

In some places, not necessarily remote, children have nothing to do on Sundays except to play with friends. That's good, except that there are more things to do and learn on Sundays.

Those who grew up with Sunday school realize how much a child will miss without it.

Children eagerly listen to Bible stories.

In a very accessible sitio in Kiwalan, Iligan City, children have never heard or experienced a Sunday school. That's why volunteers from Rivers of Life Fellowship commit to bring the Sunday and the joy of the Lord's day to them. They hear stories about Jesus, sing songs about Him, then enjoy a hot bowl of rice porridge with chicken slices.

While the children have their Sunday school, other volunteers prepare the porridge pot.

Patiently waiting for the porridge to cool.



Children have to bring their own bowls and spoons.







Coach Nelo, one of the volunteers, hopes to conduct a sports activity with the children this summer.

Pray that God will sustain the volunteers and  the ministry as a whole.
