67

Is it monsoon season? The rain pelted down so hard for so long that I was looking out for the Ark to come floating by. It rained all day. By evening the rain had stopped but Johannesburg was covered in this eerily mist. As a gnome once said "Arguing about the weather only gets you wetter". Matthew started K4J (Kids 4 Jesus) this evening at Liberty Church in Randburg. He goes there because BBC (Bryanston Bible Church) doesn't allow Matthew's age group to KFC (Kids for Christ). K4J is a vibrant children's ministry ranging from Grade 4 to 7 and is crowded every Friday evening. When we drop him off they mark on his hand a number and give us a card with a corresponding number. Tonight Matthew's number is 67. No child may leave without an adult bearing a card with that child's number. Our problem is that Matthew never wants to leave.
