Is it Friday yet?!?!

Vacation Bible School is in full steam...and we're starting to feel it!
Don't get me wrong, I love working with kids and it's such a fun and rewarding job, but it's tiring too! I'm definitely ready for some rest :)

Things are going great, though! We have an amazing team who've been such a blessing and huuuggeee help.
We've been having about 60-70 kids come every day. They are so excited about all the prizes and it's been fun to see them memorizing verses to win some goodies that came all the way from the US.
I've been amazed at how they sit quietly through the lesson! Well, at least most of them do ;)


The group of kids who came to VBS yesterday!

Our amazing workers..(minus one who was sick.)
And like I said, our workers are great. They've been such a big help and we're so thankful for them and for the time they've sacrificed to help out, whether helping keep the kids quiet, handing our papers, cleaning the church and the bathrooms, they've been great and I'm so proud of them!

It's been a fun week...I can't wait to see the fruits of this. I am getting ready for a full Sunday school class this Sunday!!  Thank-you all who have been in prayer for us during this week. Your prayers have been fully appreciated!

VBS week

Yesterday was our first day of Vacation Bible School at church. We had a little over 60 kids come. It was very good, and they were amazingly well behaved! It was fun being able to participate and see their excitement over the prizes and competitions! I am really looking forward to seeing how many will show up today and how it goes.

Our theme is "Running the Race of Life".

The "finish" line ..

The kids coloring and working on their activity book.

This little guy was so excited to show me his paper :)
Please pray with us that we will be able to reach many children and their families through this ministry!
We're looking forward to an excellent week at church!!!
