Pro.Vision Kids met for our weekly Saturday Fellowship, this time with a special emphasis on the Philippines’s “Health and Nutrition Month”. We began with a physical fitness session, followed by a Dance Praise, led by Arlyn.
Afterward, we dedicated time for the teens to listen to one another. In their respective groups, each person shared their feelings and thoughts regarding current events in the school and government, as well as their personal lives.
We encouraged them to open up as much as they felt comfortable, fostering an environment where others could learn to actively listen and empathize.
Each group leader summarized the discussion and assured everyone that their feelings were valid. This provided a valuable opportunity for us, as PVP staff and ministers, to better understand their perspectives and know how to pray for them.
Next, we provided a scripture for silent meditation (Genesis 1:1-27). We allowed them to absorb the Word individually and without distraction, grounded in the belief that faith comes by hearing and reading God’s Word.
Following the meditation, we opened the floor for everyone to share their observations, personal understandings, and discoveries about who God is.
Each was given a microphone and the opportunity to express how God spoke to them during their reflection.
Here’s a sample of what some teens shared:
1. God is amazingly powerful, I cannot fathom everything;
2. He created me in His image and likeness, but the rest of the creation, by His word;
3. God created man to have dominion over all creation; we are to be a good steward ;
4. I am thankful that I get to see God’s wonderful creation, including me;
5. My Application: Be grateful for what I have, take care of God’s creation, take care of myself
6. We need to remind other teens of the story of creation – God created only two genders: Male and Female. No other.
7. God already supplied us with everything that we need.
Lastly, during lunchtime…
We have observed that some of the teens tend to avoid their vegetables and simply set them aside. To address this, we launched an "Eat Your Veggies" challenge, where those who finished their vegetables received a special reward. 🥒🥦🥬🌽🥕🥑🧄🧅🍠🫚🥔
Before starting the challenge, we shared the importance of maintaining a balanced diet as a key component of achieving optimum health.
Thankful for the continued partnership with Citi Church, for supplying “overripe” bananas. We were able to make some banana puddings!! 🍌🍌
Our juice was not the powdered juice, but kalamansi (lemons). We will continue to incorporate more vegetables into our menu for next week's fellowship.
As for the early bird-teens, we rewarded them with veggies and fruits to take home for their family, also from Citi Church.
**YOUR LOVE, PRAYERS, and FINANCIAL SUPPORT enable Pro.Vision Philippines to provide such great L.I.F.E. for hundreds of marginalized children and youth within the urban slum communities of Cebu!
We thank you!!!
