KIDS ON MISSION<br />
Shining for Jesus<br />
By Linda Cheam<br />
Children’s Ministry Trip to Manila, the Philippines, 8 - 13 December 2008<br />
“In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16<br />
Our Children’s Ministry children certainly shone for Jesus in Manila. <strong>The</strong>y cooperated, worked and performed enthusiastically with the one<br />
aim of bringing the love of Jesus to the slum children and the poor living in Manila.<br />
Hosted by Oikos Helping Hand Ministry, our team of 13 adults and 17 children performed skits and mimes, led in praise and worship, shared<br />
the gospel story, did arts and craft, prayed for individual children, gave hygiene talks and distributed gifts and food rations.<br />
Our children’s eyes were opened to an unfamiliar world of poverty and suffering, yet they also learnt and saw for themselves that joy and<br />
happiness are not dependent on material blessings or their physical<br />
surroundings.
