Saturday, 8/22/09 Olive Festival

At 1pm today we played at the Olive Festival. It was a challenge! Some of the boys were gone, and that left Nathan, Samuel, Don and Lisa. When we first started, Nathan looked like he was about to faint. He said he felt sick to his stomach. It was a hot day, so Lisa poured some cool water on his head and back to see if that would help. It didn't. Since he was not able to sing at the beginning, Don and Lisa did a few songs (Household of Faith & Beautiful One). Then Nathan tried to sing with us for a few kids songs. He was having a hard time. We felt frustrated at the way things were turning out, but we kept our eyes on Jesus and shared that "Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father accept through Him." There were several people enjoying the music and the message. A few even came up to us afterward to thank us. It's a good thing that "In our weakness, He is strong."
