BIBLE SCHOOL
VBS 2008
ROCKS!
We want to thank everyone who participated in,
volunteered, and planned for the Beach Party VBS 2008! We 'surfed
through the scriptures' with about 55 to 60 kids daily June 9-13 and had
35+ youth and adult volunteers. Through our Daily Assembly, Music, Mission,
Crafts, Recreation, Science Discovery, Storytelling and Snack Time,
we learned about the daily "Be-Attitudes"; Be Obedient, Be
Kind, Be Forgiving, Be Bold, and Believe.
Thanks also to Healthy Approach and Albertson's for their
generous gift card donations to purchase snacks and other supplies.
We were flooded with donations for Feed Our Kids, Project
Read, and the SLAB. These missions will appreciate our gifts during
their time of great need in the summer.
We offer a huge thank you to all that contributed to the
VBS missions.
What
a way to kick off the summer!
