Time flies when we are doing God’s work. It’s already our second last day in Nias. Morning kindergarten programme continues as Nias is still on a 6 day work week system. Auntie Lucy taught them the uses of our five senses. Interesting activities were used to draw their attention. 
Eyes See,
Nose Smell,
Ears Hear,
Mouth Taste
Hands Touch
SMELL~
For sense of smell, blindfolded children were supposed to guess what kind of food were they smelling. It is really challenging since many of the food smells the same!
Guess what's he's smelling? Our favourite, Coffee! haha... i think he too enjoy smelling it. I would love to drink it though.
HEAR~
For sense of hearing, we have audio clips of sounds made by various objects encountered daily. Well... They could identify most of the sounds like Birds, rooster, bulldozer,... but one particular sound puzzled them. THE VACUUM CLEANER! haha... i wont use a VACUUM CLEANER in a village, so neither would they encountered one before!
After the kindergarten class, we had a small meeting with the kindergarten teachers, to hand down teaching materials for them to use for their lessons in the future. There were many uniquely designed limited edition materials specially made by us. They cant be bought nor found in any shops. It is our desire for them to continue using it. One very special song which we made for the adorable kindergarten kids ->
Preparations for Evangelistic Finale Night started as early as Saturday afternoon. Bought biscuits and cakes for the kids, spent time to pack them in bags for easy distribution tomorrow.
Due to certain arrangements made the day before, Darren, Robin and Esther went down to a local High School for a motivation talk session. Fajar, a student from the college initiated the visit. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, pictures taken disappeared... Robin was unhappy about it, but things have to move on.
Afternoon, we had our second session of Bible Study Fellowship with College Students. First session was conducted during the first day of Children’s camp.
We sang and played games with each other. First game for warm up was a quick introduction of names for everyone present. Then we dived into our first game: 007. The games goes like: "Zero" "Zero" "Seven" "Bang" "Ah!". Player A will point to B and shout "Zero", B to C "Zero", C to D "Seven", D points and shouts to E "Bang", AND FINALLY E will NOT REACT, but the two players beside E will have to say "AH!". Forfeit were dished out for those who accumulated errors.
I wonder who's doing the forfeit...
Second game we played was "THIS IS A SAD AND SOLEMN DAY, isn't it , ~" Details shall not go into specifics, but at least we knew who were the ones who can really NOT LAUGH. Had a great time trying not to laugh.. but i guess some members of our team is just too good.
Uncle William shared with us how we should be using the Word of God through a movie – “The dangerous book”. For many centuries and millenniums, Christians have been prosecuted and killed for reading the bible. It’s a miracle for any of us now to read a bible openly without fear.
66 Books of wisdom. Most of us would have read more than 66 books of any sort, be it John Grisham, or Dan Brown, Harry Potters. But have we read all 66 books of the Bible once through? I’ve not, perhaps many of us are just like me. However, in 1 Peter 2:2,3 , God commands us to be alike newborns, craving for the pure milk of the word that we may know that He is gracious to give us life. We should not live by bread alone, but by every word from His mouth that we may be fed spiritually. How can we know God’s will for us if we do not even read or hear what he says through the Bible? Thus I have made it a point for me to complete my reading of the entire Bible.

In the evening, Jessica and Robin stayed over at their uncle’s place. Dinner was especially good with MORE MORE MORE DURIANS! Luckily Jessica isn't with us , else she will be overwhelmed by it. While the rest of us packs up and prepare for the day ahead. It’s the Evangelistic Finale Night!!
