Vacation Bible School

I have so enjoyed our Vacation Bible School this week with Operation Overboard!  18-19 children have been joining us every night for singing, crafts, stories, games and learning of our biblical stories.  I’ve had the immense joy of being the story teller again this year.  This means I get to share the biblical stories with all the kids.  I’ve been Noah, Naaman, John the Baptist, Peter the disciple and tonight I get to be the Apostle Paul.  I’ve dressed the part for each character – you can see my Naaman and the leprosy problem (it’s really Mary Kay mask and oatmeal!) 

I am thankful to the parents and families for sharing their children with us.  I am very grateful to all the helpers who made this week possible.  We had quite a number of children from outside our church join us.  Thank you to all who extended invitations to encourage them to join us.  Thank you everyone for helping to make a difference in the lives of these children.  I firmly believe these VBS evenings are times they will always remember and hold dear. 

This Sunday morning we’ll hear from the children as they sing some of their songs for us at our 9:00am service.  I hope you can join us in worship as we celebrate our children and learn a bit about the topic of worship with Reverend Mary Friederich.  

See you this Sunday friends.
