Day 7

While we were out in Kerch yesterday, the kids were preparing for our ‘Talent show’, which was put on Today. Basically this was each ward putting on a skit of one of the parables that Jesus told.
We had the Good Samaritan, the Sower, The 10 Virgins, the vineyard owner (employing people all through the day) and the Prodigal Son.

The latter was put on by Bards for Jesus, we were great, if I do say so myself. We had a herd of pigs with piggy noses and the most beautiful bunch of ‘loose women’ ever!!!!
The Talent show was a really nice point where the majority of it wasn’t translated. Although this meant that at times we didn’t always follow, at least the kids got an un-interrupted show.
This evening we played a game. Now the game is called Biffer. There were 8 stations each with different challenges and things to do- Frisbee golf, jump rope, water ballon chucking and more. All the kids had to complete the tasks in pairs, holding hand as they searched for each station. In between stations were our wondering biffers and doctors. The biffers were all equipped with socks filled with flour, which when they strike a child, leave a nice white flour mark. Once hit by a biffer a pair has to sit still until a doctor comes to ‘bandage’ to biff. It was great fun- lots of screaming laughing and running around.After Biffer was craft- a pretty door hanger. This one was a hit with the international team as well who all held up the clearing up process by sitting down and making their own when the kids had done.
