Teacher Training - January 2011

Besides VBS every afternoon, Cristiane and I did a teacher training course every evening and Saturday morning. Two of the girls that came up from Cuiabá were able to take adavantage of the time and participate in the course also. The rest of the group were 4 of my adolescent girls (Luana, Carol, Josiane, Adriana) and Wellita who was taking it for the second time and taught for a time before she had to work on Sundays. My purpose in coming to Campo Verde was to train teachers to do children's and adolescent ministry. However we just haven't had many adults willing to teach or have have legal marriages to be qualified to teach. Therefore most of our future teachers will be my adolescents who are very willing and excited to do so. They had the assignment to evangelize 3 kids other than VBS. They loved it. I will continue the training these next two weeks in preparation for my absence. Since I will be gone for almost 4 months we really need others to take the responsibility of teaching the children.
