Origami and Dance





It was so much fun watch the Jacobsen family serve with their gifts and talents. Pete, Lauren and Eric showed the teen girls origami and taught a priceless lesson on living for Christ in freedom. The verse Eric taught was Galatians 5:1 - It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourself be burdened again by a yoik of slavery. Kate and Liz taught dance to a praise song with the other group of teen girls in Don Bosco. After the dance, she and Kate spent time with the girls, getting to know them and letting them ask questions. Beautiful! Both of these lessons involved learning while engaging the girls with a hands on activity...something they will always remember. I think the family learned from the teens while giving too. We've seen several family teams experience the love of Christ and share their hearts over the last two years in the Dominican Republic. I love the fact that the COTN Venture program makes this possible. Check it out - http://bit.ly/pWigj1
