BUS RIDE


            On our last day at the school we went on a field trip to the Mayan Ruins with some of the children. On the way back all the kids started to sing a song, but it wasn’t a traditional bus song like “the wheels on the bus go round and round.” Their song was so much better. It went like this:

LEADER: “Kim, how’s your mind?”

KIM: “Made up!”

LEADER: “And your heart?”

KIM: “It’s set!”

LEADER: “And you’re going?”

KIM: “With Jesus all the way!”

ALL: “She’s got her mind made up and her heart is set and she’s going with Jesus all the way!”

And then the leader moved onto the next person until he asked every person on the bus, including the bus driver. It was a really great experience to see kids that young so committed to their faith and celebrating it with one another. They literally shouted it as loud as they could. This was one of the best times of the entire trip.
