Our friends over at the Young County Olney Cub Senior Center hosted a July game and potluck night. The social event aimed at bringing the community together, young and old, for an evening of games, food and fellowship has grown and become very popular over the last year.
I followed my three year old out to the front yard. She happily lugged all of the books that her little arms could hold, and I carried a camping blanket. It was that special time in the afternoon, when the sun is beginning to make its downward turn, when the shadows of the full, leafy trees create cool sanctuaries in the grass: a fine time to spread out a blanket and read books.
“Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted.”
If you’ve been around The Refuge Christian Center this summer, you may have already met a cheerful young woman with a ready smile and a heart for children. Her name is Yesol Lim, and she’s been interning at The Refuge as part of a U.S.-based Christian internship program. Originally from Sejong City, South Korea, Yesol has brought her curiosity, energy, and faith to Olney for the past several weeks—and she’s quickly become a favorite among the children she works with.
