Amelia Farm Day 3

Kayaking today! Me, an instructor and three kids. It was different seeing them away from the farm setting, they were out and about, enjoying themselves, but learning on the sly!

There is a good rapport between the kids we had today, not fighting or winding each other up which is a blessing! It is transformational watching these people learn new skills and help each other out, laughing and playing, like they have not really had the option to before. It also gives them the chance to enjoy themselves and get their kicks in a way which is legal!

Taking kids out for activities also gives them back their confidence and self esteem!

    No not mine. Damn, some may say! But one given about a dear friend. He and his colleague were working amongst the youth of the church and when getting together remarked at how much the church needed to change and how it didn’t support those it ought. There were very aware of the shortcomings of the church It is just a shame, he said that they were not quite so aware of their own! Something to ponder for lent – be less cynical!
