Vacation Bible Schools
It’s that time of year again when schools let out and Vacation Bible School begins. I was fortunate to take a small helping part in our community VBS this year. It’s been a few years since I was involved with VBS and it brought back all the fun and learning that it has to offer. As is in many smaller communities, our population gets less & less and so the churches combine to put on the VBS. Different denominations come together to bring to the children a program that is both fun & yet teaches them about Jesus and the word. Hopefully leaving positive & fresh awareness that will stay with them their whole lives.
Kathy Tebelius did a wonderful job of putting the program together and leading the way with her puppeteer sidekick, Sarah. Lots of music, storytelling, and activities that not only kept the children entertained, but was very much enjoyed by us adults also. This year we were in the Rain Forest and the correlation between the rain making everything grow and how learning God’s word helps us to grow in our faith was easy to understand for even the smallest of children.
