Day 3 - SEW Olympics - Stronger

Today was the day we talked about being stronger, about perseverance, about using our God-given strength to do the right thing!  It was a full throttle day...

Anissa and Sissi getting ready to do the warm up exercises

Telling the kids about the Olympic Creed...in English

and in Swahili

Red Team got to lead with the Tanzanian flag in the Opening Ceremonies today

Just some of the beautiful faces we're sharing our day with today

Oh yes, warm-up exercises done to James Brown's "Living in America"

Red team working on the memory verse

Hebrews 12:1-2 "And let us run the race with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith."

Team competition today was a wheelbarrow race....example given by Petra and Makenzie

This was definitely fun!

I love the shoes on the hands

Craft was a tin foil champion with a heart

Cutting out the hearts

Helping the kids to tear their tin foil and make the tin foil champion
