Tonight was the last night of VBS at our church in Spring Arbor. The girls have been helping all week. Cyndi helped with registration and setting up groups. Julie was able to contribute her artistic ability by drawing the Pagoda backdrop on the stage and helped with some props. The weather was hot all wk. but that didn't stop the fun and learning this week. Several were led to the Lord and I'm sure God's word was planted in many hearts.

Kids singing "God's Great Love" at VBS 2011

There were 280 plus kids who attended and Candy Brugger and team had 150+ leaders and helpers to carry out the many duties in VBS.  We sure enjoyed the kids singing tonight. Chuck taught a parenting class during the time the kids were in class. He had good participation too and many received good parenting tools during the last four nights. Although I didn't directly help with the VBS, I prayed for the leaders and program plus helped our girls a bit with things so they could participate. It is such a privilege to be a part of the family here at Spring Arbor Free Methodist Church.
