Vacation Bible School

Hey everyone! We had VBS last week and it was a blast! Our program was "Power Lab", so it was science themed. I was a crew leader(someone who guides a group of kids from place to place) and I had 5-6 kids ages 6-10. Here's a picture of my crew.

L-R: Levi, Myself, Tanner, Logan, Alex, Tara, and my assistant Stephen

Each day we started with worship and skits to introduce the Bible story then went on a rotation of Crafts, Games, Snack, Video/Experiments, and Drama. Our Bible stories included Jesus healing the 10 Leapers, Jesus healing the Blind Man, Peter walking on Water, Crucifixion/Resurrection, and the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. We learned much about God, His Power and His love.

Overall one of the things that stuck with me was that sharing the love of the Lord doesn't have to be some long-winded speech, a simple hug or "God loves you" can sometimes have more impact than a lecture. Also that lightening should be a reminder to share with others, because like lightening lights up the sky, we can light up the world.

We had 117 workers and an even 200 kids, pretty impressive! :D We are greatly blessed. Here are some more pictures. Enjoy!

This week we are going to Branson for a couple of days with Mimi and Papa. Should be lots of fun! TTYL!
