Our Easter Sunday was spent in the village. I had agreed to take the Sunday school. We had the Easter story planned out using
‘Resurrection Eggs’ and some other fun games.
The kids were a blast in playing pin the tail on the
donkey. Some got so disorientated,
ending up facing the wrong way round. It
was such a laugh.
The children are normally seated at the back of the church after
Sunday School but, like the women’s conference, we like to stir things up a
little. We invited the children up to
the front to share what they had learned.
We played a neat game that tricked the volunteer into believing
they had won a lot of money, when if they had made the right choice, they would
have won a whole lot more! We used this
to show how sometimes our choices are misguided by the things we can see and we
forget that very often our future plans are hidden away and out of sight. If we were able to see the bigger picture and
ALL that we can achieve in life, we probably wouldn’t settle for second
best.
The kids loved being centre of attention.
Robinah cooked up an Easter feast for us. Lutaaya loved tasting her wonderful Ugandan
cooking. (Apparently much better than
mine!)
We had little visitors all day, popping in to see us before we
left for the city.
Thank you Buweri village for sharing Easter with us and
welcoming us once again to our African home.
