Fathers day in Bolivia

Happy fathers day from Bolivia! Felicidades papas!

Today we accompanied all the kids to their classes to celebrate fathers day. we were their fathers for the day!! I was Edgar's papa today! We ate lots and lots of food,coca cola, a bolivian favourite and watched some dances. After school later on in the afternoon I got them to trace their feet and write their names on the paper as well as draw themselves and explained that they do have a father and thats the greatest blessing. They are adopted daughters of God. He has adopted them into his family because he sent his son to die for our sins so we can be free and become a part of God's family. I had kinda had it in my mind for awhile that I wanted to do this lesson with them because it's especially important for these kids to know that just because they don't have a earthly father doesn't mean they don't have family and are treasured and loved by God. He has adopted them. It worked out perfectly that today was fathers day!

We love coca cola!!
