Do you have children or grandchildren? Do you pray with your children for our family?
Or, do you work in children's ministry at your church?
Are you looking for ways to increase their interest in other cultures or help them relate to the children of missionaries?
WGM's website is chock full of resources and we were so flattered that Ellie was featured in one of their Kids World articles this fall. The piece refers to our use of a popular language app/game (uTalk) to get acquainted and learn basic phrases of Albanian before we left the States.
There is a companion PDF that you can print or download with sensory activities to cement some cultural tidbits about Albanian culture as well as give tangible reminders of ways to pray for Ellie (and Reni) and the people of Albania!
Thank you, Rachel E, for this creative way to involve children in missions!
Ironically, just today Ellie asked, "Mom, how did I learn English when you brought me home?"
Realizing she must be struggling with the language barrier here I explained then asked, "Are you sad you don't remember how to speak Albanian?"
"Yes."
It'll come, Ellie. It'll come.
