God loves West Philly

Well what can i say, another two weeks is over and so is the mission trip to West Philly Spruce Hill Christian School.

What a Awesome time we had....

The Kids were amazing, God was moving...we had over 200 children it was bigger than last year.....

33 Northern Irish folks went over and worked with around 30 american folks.....

The team was by far the best i have worked with....we worked as a christian community and there was unity between us all.

It was also a hard time....the weather was hot and we got hit by a freak storm...but heck that didnt stop us...we fought on and preachered and taught the gospel to the kids....

we had amazing trips for the kids.....there was messy games...there was music...and great skits.....

bible buddys was awesome...i got to lead my own bible group..andi fell in love with them all.

But i fell in love with one kid called Israel....he made a big impact in my life...and i wont forget him...he was shy, scarred, lonely and he had a story to tell about his life...he is around 8 years old....his dad left the family...so he has no father figure....after two weeks i became that father figure...i shared so much love with....and well it is even hard now to type this....because my heart is broken...i wish i never left....because i want to keep helping him....

so i have written him a letter...and will post it off soon......he give me a card that he made me...i will not let that go....miss you buddy....

i miss philly so much..my heart is always with that city and the kids of it.....God is moving there folks....

so many church plants going on....camden and around the city area....pray for philly so souls would be saved.....pray also that Jesus will move the hearts of the other churchs to work together there for the people of west philly....

God bless Philly....

Love you all..

peace
