Manos de Jesus-Hands of Jesus. That’s the organization that we’re working with
here.
One of the key aspects to the organization is the feeding program. They feed over 1500 kids a couple times a week, but before the kids eat they get experience kids’ church…it’s a whole lot of fun! I’m definitely missing my students, so this was a great relief to hang out with kids-really cute kids:)
We sang several songs, all in Spanish of course. And we did many, many, many motions. The kids were cracking up at me because I kept trying to get the motions down. The words, notsomuch, but the motions connected them with me. It’s amazing how much kids love you more when you’re willing to make a fool out of yourself. This is a trait that God is still perfecting in me. Jesus put himself in a position to look like a fool for the sake of people. I’m usually okay with putting myself out there; I’m usually okay with laughing at myself. Take my word for it-you don’t need to test me on this:)
To be the hands of Jesus is to be Jesus incarnate. It seems like that keeps coming up through many people…how fitting.
