Hello folks,
The sun is setting on our 2011 VBS. We have the Unity Service ahead on Sunday as we celebrate VBS with the entire body of Christ. As I was looking back over the last three days I thought things went really well.
The registration team had sign-in and t-shirts down to a science.
Our youth helpers were well trained and did a great job.
I heard good reports of children sharing prayer request at snack time.
The report on games was that kids got wet and they were very happy with that!
The Bible stories were simple but powerful. Just as you would expect from an awesome book like the Bible!
The praise team rocked the Grove and the kids loved their stage time on Wednesday night.
I enjoyed watching a father share with his son how to do the sound ministry at VBS.
I heard a couple of reports from parents about their kids singing the VBS songs like crazy at home and kids on a mission to gather pennies.
I heard a leader say a little girl remembered her from last year's VBS. That is a pretty good memory for a small one who doesn't go to church and VBS is the closest they get all year!
I saw many new faces and lots of adults talking and laughing.
I saw kids dancing before the Lord of all creation as the trees blew in the evening breeze.
God blessed us with good weather and It seemed like each night the weather got nicer. I enjoyed just looking up through the trees to the blues skies.
What about you. What did you see or hear that encouraged you and let you know that God was blessing? I would encourage you to take some time and tell God thanks for all he blessed you with during VBS. Ask him to bless the kids and give us a great Unity Service.
Thanks to all of you for making VBS a blessing to the kids and to our Lord and savior Jesus Christ!
