SUMMER SUNDAY SCHOOL
Kids aged from preschool to fifth grade: Sit with mom and dad until after children’s time; then we’ll walk to the Youth Center together. Middle and High School students, it’s your choice stay in church or help out with the little kids.
Jerusalem Marketplace Begins!
We kicked off this year’s Vacation Bible School with a blast on the shofar (ram’s horn) by Mar Bet (Mr. B). At the time of writing this, our first day is complete. Today’s Bible point reminded us that JESUS IS KING! From 9 a.m. to noon, August 11-15, we will continue to dance, sing, play, and do crafts in the marketplace, and visit Rabbi Anthony in the synagogue school. 47 kids are making joyful noises in the Youth Center, and we are all feeling so blessed. In addition, approximately 30 middle school, high school, and adult volunteers (some true VBS veterans – former attendees, now grown!) are beading, weaving, hammering, baking, serving, making pottery, and shepherding the children from station to station. All doing their individual parts; contributing to making the magic happen for the kids.
SOCCER BALL DONATIONS CONTINUE…
IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO HELP! Each ball costs $8.99. If you wish to participate in our VBS Soccer Ball Drive for children in Africa, a donation of $10 will purchase the ball, and assist with some postage to get the balls to the distribution center. Just look for the collection bucket at our display in the Concert Hall.
Special thanks to the folks who donated to support our SOCCER BALL DRIVE. Your dollars make a difference.
