Vacation Bible School


The theme this year at VBS was was "Boomerang Express...It all comes Back to Jesus". I had the opportunity to work in the 4 year old classroom. We met M-F from 9:00-12:30. Each day consisted of bible stories, games, singing, crafts, recreation, snack time and a worship rally to close out the day. It was fun getting to watch these little minds take in the events from the week. A few highlights throughout the week included: the lights going out (typically not a big deal unless you are in the basement with no windows or emergency lights with 15, 4 year olds), one of our kiddos lost a tooth, hearing one little boy tell his friend "don't worry, God said you should not perish but have everlasting life", and last but certainly not least, 14 kids making decisions for Christ. What a way to celebrate the week!

Each day we had a theme and this day happened to be "hat" day.


While the big kids were learning about Jesus, Lilly got to hang out in the nursery and play with her friends too. It was nice being able to volunteer with VBS and know that at the same time Lilly was in good hands.

This evening we closed out the week with a pool party and BBQ. It was fun getting to see the kids from my class and I really enjoyed all the extra hugs that they gave. This was only Lilly's second time at the pool and she absolutely loved it.
