All the children singing

Today during church we took the children to a nursing home near by to sing the residents some songs and give them cards and a small gift. It was amazing. The kids sang wonderfully and they were so good at talking to the people who lived there. I loved watching the residents eyes light up when they saw the children so many of them just kept saying "thank you, thank you" and I even saw a few tears. It was so great to see how the children blessed those people. I was a bit nervous about some of the children who had not enjoyed singing in the practices and had been saying that they didn't even want to go. Once we got there though they really suprised me. I think once they saw the residents they realized that this had nothing to do with them and everything to do with blessing those people. You can really see God through these children and it amazes me every time I am with them. So far this has been the highlight of my Christmas experience in Perth.
