VBS 2008

VBS 2008


It's play time!!


Moving on to the next station!


Yes, we're tired but we're going to make it!


We are currently in the middle of the 4th day of the community VBS held here at the church. It has been a great time so far with 109 kids attending yesterday ( don't have today's count as of yet). The theme has focused upon the power of Jesus in our lives that we might be thankful, helpful, brave, assured of eternal life by faith, and empowered to tell others about God.



I truly appreciate VBS because it was when I was a kid attending Bible school in a little Baptist church in Marion, Kansas that I responded to the invitation to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. That is the intent of our VBS, to offer to these kids the life changing power of Jesus Christ in their lives. It's more than having fun and eating snacks, it's about responding to the great love of God through his son Jesus Christ to live life to its fullest - for now and eternity. I encourage you to pray for these kids and to offer a prayer of thanks to the many who gave of their time to be leaders for the week. What a blessing!

AMEN! What a cool deal! Give all those VBS workers an extra hug for all their hard labors. Tell them we're praying for them as they finish up the week. It's time for the harvest!!
