Yesterday at our special Father’s Day activity we had several men. Granted three of them were from Hope and Calvary and three others were “pastoral” staff but it was SO good to have men! We were very excited to have eight from the neighborhood. They seemed to enjoy their time with us and the afternoon was a great time of fun and preaching.
There was a puppet show, the kids put on a play; directed by Maicon. The children’s choir sang with the flute troupe and a cello violin trio. Sounds hard to believe but it was great. There also was food. How could it have gotten any better? Overall there must have been fifty participants. It was fun.
One sad aspect, however, was that some of our faithful kids had no family members at this important event. I heard from at least three little ones, “How can I invite my dad to come when he is in prison?” What do you say to that one? I said, “We’ll adopt you for the day!” but they didn’t come.
Pray for us as we do follow-up on the dads that visited.
