first of all "pocket" in this blog is going to be representing something that we can carry our things around in. It may not be a physical pocket, but a metaphorical pocket. As I was watching one of the Heart to Heart staff run around and play games with the kids today, she decided to empty the contents of her pocket to she wasn't running around with those things the whole time. As I watched this unfold I was wondering what she had that needed to be emptied. As she pulled things out, it made me smile and say to myself "only in the pocket of a missionary." Then I thought of my pockets. The place where I keep everything when I am there. I used my backpack or my purse generally to keep things. As I thought of the simplicity of the things in this pocket it made me smile to myself. Here are some things that you might find in the pocket of a H2H missionary at any given time during summer ministry:
- LANYARD (and lots of it)
- Friendship Bracelets/Friendship bracelet string
- Notes written in a different language, decorated specifically for you from "your kid"
- More bracelets
- Camera (which may or may not be or end up being broken at some point)
- Markers
- Beads
- A Pipe Cleaner mass which was once a crown or bracelet
- Popped Balloons
I love summer ministry.
