VBS Recap

Here are some details from the children’s week at VBS. Pleae check our blog for more details and pictures and videos from the week.
VBS 2012 – Carry the Torch
Acts 20:24
“However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me —the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.”
Monday
Acts 9:1-22
God puts Paul on the road to following Jesus.
Service Project: Bundles for the Homeless: The children made bundles to be handed out to people experiencing homelessness. These included small snacks and toiletries, a washcloth, and socks all wrapped up in a T-shirt…all ready to be delivered. Each family took a bundle to be distributed where they saw a need.
*A VERY special thanks goes to The Adair Group who donated 60 T-shirts to our project. What a great organization!
Tuesday
Acts 16:16-39
Paul invites the jailer and his family to join him on the road to following Jesus.
Service Project: Goody bags for families at Ronald McDonald House: The children packed bags of items to help families and parents pass the time spent at the hospital with their children.
Wednesday
Acts 19:23-20:1
The road to following Jesus is not always easy.
Service Project: Flower Arrangements for Emeritas Nursing Home: The children created 80 flower arrangements to be distributed by our youth group to the residents.
Thursday
Acts 23:12-35
God provides helpers to keep us safe as we follow Jesus.
Service Project: Cookies to Share: This was a more personal project for our children. They decorated small boxes and filled them with cookies. Then they were tasked with giving these cookies to another person. As you can imagine, this required quite a bit of sacrifice for the children.
Friday
Acts 27
By trusting God’s promises as Paul did, we can share God’s goodness with others.
Service Project: Canned Goods and Encouragement Cards: On our final day the children packed up canned goods and other items for Bread of the Mighty Food Bank. And then they made cards of encouragement to be sent to the missionaries our church supports.
