(our latest steps): Wrapping Up our Sons and Daughters Tour
August 3, 2017
Wow! What an amazing, fun-filled time we have had with the choir as we have celebrated the ending of our memorable Sons and Daughters Tour!
Below are some of the highlights from the past 2 weeks:
The children loved their camping experience in the Colorado Rockies!
Melda and Marvelous from Kenya brave the cold
creek while the team camped in the mountains.
It’s important to work on balance while camping!
These smiles!
Uncle Saul loved leading the team in songs in the evening!
Beauty all around!
Campfires and stories are a must!
The children and staff loved camping! From smore’s
to campfire’s and songs, it was so much fun!
Our last concert of the year was held at
Ellerslie Church. Auntie Angela and Auntie Christa
made the song “Not For a Moment” extra special
by sharing the solo with the children.
We are so proud of all that the children have accomplished!
At the end of the tour, we celebrate their graduation
from the Life Training Academy. Here, Dawnga from India
is receiving his certificate of completion.
The children and staff had a special afternoon of
exploring Garden of the Gods outside of Colorado Springs.
Enjoying the caves and rocks of Garden of the Gods with the D’Acquisto kids!
Life is better with a friend.

formations with each other!
