Today we visited the Monkolé churches' children's camp. It is being held in a village called Kandi-Fô, about 15 minutes drive from our village. They are holding it in the school there – school doesn't start until October – and we thought it would be good to go over and see how it was going. We had a few blow-up footballs to give them, which we'd been given by a friend in England, and it was nice to come bearing gifts! Just after we arrived they rounded up all the kids:
And then we went into one of the classrooms with one of the groups to hear their lesson:
It was encouraging to realise just how well I could follow the story and questions, and also to feel that we weren't just visiting a camp as we've visited others, but these were our churches (and our language!).
