And a child will lead them.

      A few weeks ago we introduced you to the Heemstra family. Manoah Heemstra is a second grader at our school. She and her family will be leaving Lesotho in about a month to return to the Netherlands. 
     Manoah is a planner. She was eager to take charge of setting up a yard sale to get rid of things they would not be taking to their home country, including many of her own toys, books, and dress-up clothes. She set prices for the items to be sold and then invited friends to come to the big event. 
   
      While most children would be excited to sell their things in order to buy new things later, Manoah had another plan. She wanted to use all the money from the sale to purchase audio Bibles for shepherd boys living in the mountains. This is one of the ministries her dad has been involved with over the years. She also intends to buy special gifts for some of the local orphaned children. Here is one child with a huge heart for Christ!
