Chocolate Bar Dreams


Olga, our translator, is involved with the Saturday orphanage ministry of her church. She teaches the Bible lesson each week and often invites us.

The first time we accompanied her, Olga tied chocolate bars to tree branches. She told the children that the candy represented their dreams. She explained that we must ask for Jesus‘ help to reach our dreams. One by one the children approached Aaron, who was playing the part of Jesus, and asked for his help. Aaron then lifted each child to a chocolate bar.

After the Bible lesson there is a time to play with the children. How do we communicate with them? Through faces, smiles, hugs, and laughter.
