VBS – New Milford, PA

 

My friend Jessica’s little boy Keaton, posing as one of the “Go Fish Guys” who led praise times and introduced lessons via video.

Dress up time!

The theme of the week was Praise!  Praise God for His greatness, authority, providence, power, and love.

Bible Teaching Times:

 

Snack time!

cupcakes masquerading as cordless microphones

everybody loves snacks

 

 

 

 

Pictures are better than words, but we didn’t get any pictures of the Mission Lesson times..of Jevon dressed up as a tribal guy, of us using a toy 18-wheeler, a police badge, world maps, glass canning jars, or pictures of thrones and dynamite to illustrate the themes of the day…

no pictures of Jevon or me story telling, of Isaiah trying to grab the mike, of kids asking questions, or kids spilling cheerios in the front row, or kids listening, or kids catching us afterwards and saying with envy in their eyes “I hope you have fun telling people about Jesus in Brazil”!  Pray that some of those kids will find themselves in the same shoes years from now – taking God’s message to the least-reached people of the world.

Wacky Wednesday was…wacky.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The wacky relay – because what could be wackier than silly string?

Our heartfelt gratitude to all of the adults and leaders who willingly took the heat in this game – a favorite of the kids!

 

 

 

 

Do any of you know this guy?  I think I’ve maybe seen him before…somewhere.

I have no idea who this is.

 

Some people were wacky even when it wasn’t wacky wednesday.  🙂  Thank you, CiCi, for bringing us a reason every day to PRAISE our great God!

More Bible times:  (Cali and Kiki loved their teacher’s teaching: Thank you, Mrs. Kelly for all the pictures and role plays.  You know instinctively the things that help us love learning.)

 

It is a beautiful thing to see kids in God’s Word together.

 

craft time:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

More crazy games:

crab soccer

Thank you to all of you who prayed for us and the kids and teachers at VBS.  And thank you, New Milford people, for letting us be a part of your lives and ministry this week.  We want to stay in touch with you.

 

 

 That’s all.
