For a few months out of the year, my friend Amy and I dive right into preparing for Vacation Bible School - just one week out of the summer. While stressful at times (a.k.a. trouble finding volunteers), it always feels worth it when we see the energy, enthusiasm, and excitement of the kids during the week!
On Sunday, we wrapped up another year of VBS! This year's theme? "Weird Animals!" A strange theme, but a fun one to work with. While the kids learned about a few strange, real animals that God created, they also learned that Jesus loves all of us, no matter how "weird" or different we are. Sunday morning (Children's Day) we enjoyed the kids' program and afterwards, they all had so much fun with a "weird animal" petting zoo, balloon animal creations, a bounce house, and even a water balloon fight!
I am always so thankful for the many volunteers it takes to put on something like this. There are people in our church who go above and beyond what is expected to make sure our kids have a great VBS week and a great Children's Day. We are blessed!
