7/15/2024 From Lewiston, ME From Group 1 (David, Andrew, Nathan, Sophia, Cherry, Isaac), prepared by Nathan Tan
Today we met the kids in Root Cellars’ Super Summer program, which includes students in grades K-7. We introduced ourselves to them and we helped them memorize Bible verses, read to them, painted a team banner, and supervised them as they played outside. The kids were so welcoming to us and especially grateful for the used bikes and equipment we provided. We used the extended devotion time after dinner to reflect on how we saw God during our day. During our devotions at a local park, a powerful moment involved worshiping on a bridge and praying for a man we heard continuously groaning by the riverbank. We feel Root Cellar shares similarities with BP but note a deeper connection and engagement to service among the youth this year. Please pray for us to have the energy and strength tomorrow as we teach English conversation classes to adults in the morning and take the kids swimming in the afternoon. Pray that god will open the hearts of those who do not know him, and that we can plant the seeds for a relationship with God.

Nathan Tan預備：
今天我們見到了參加Root Cellar’s Super Summer項目的孩子們，這些是K-7年級的學生。我們自我介紹後，活動就正式開始，當中包括有幫助他們背聖經經文，給他們讀書，畫了一張團隊的banner，還有陪同他們在外面玩耍和進行監督等等。孩子們非常歡迎我們，尤其對我們教會捐出提的二手單車和其他室外活動的設備表示感激。在晚餐後我們到附近公園進行了Devotion time，反思在這一天中如何看到神在這地區所作的，當我們行到橋中試過敬拜時聽到的在河河邊有一個男子不斷地痛苦呻吟，我們為他痛楚禱告，希望神醫治他。Devotion時，我們也分享了Root Cellar與BP短宣的分別，覺得兩者都有頗多相似之處，但我們覺得Root Cellar有更深入的服務參與和聯繫。
請為大家繼續為我們祈禱，願我們明天有足夠的精力和力量在早上參與教授成人英語會話課和下午帶孩子們去游泳。祈求神能打開那些不認識他的人的心，並讓我們能為與神建立關係播下種子。謝謝。
