Special Olympics

A couple of weeks ago, i got the honour to participate running the Special Olympics here in Rundu.
We had 24 kids and adults with mental disabilities who did different soccer-skills at the stadium. It was a wonderful day, were all the kids got to show what they were good for.

It’s amazing how god it felt to make a day like this for these kids. They are usually hidden in the villages outside town, but this day were totally theirs!! They got food, drinks, t-shirts, medals, ribbons and a bunch of claps on their shoulders! The smiles on their faces after the event is possible to live on for a long long time… :)
