VBS - July 27-31 & Sunday, Aug 2

FINALLY! A new post. The blog has taken a backseat of late. But here I am again - on the ball once more.

VBS! Our next event. PRAY. PRAY. PRAY. God loves the children. And he is still a prayer answering God. So many have come to know Christ through VBS. We are passing out 2400 fliers prior to the event. Let's join together and ask the Lord to give us a full house that last week of July!

If anyone wants to pass out fliers and you cannot do so during regular visitation hours or you would like to pass them out in addition to those times, please let me know. We can coordinate schedules and find a partner for you. If you want some for your own neighborhood, let Pastor or me know. We will get you a stack of fliers.

We still need more school supplies. We have plenty of notebooks and paper. Kleenex would be a great addition to our collection as would glue sticks. We probably can't have too many pencils and crayons, so bring them on. A fairly complete list of items is in a previous post:

Also, we need snacks. If everyone can bring 3 or 4 bags/boxes (or more if you can), we should be able to provide all that we need. That list:

Teddy Grahams

Ritz Crackers

Townhouse Crackers

Goldfish

We are trying to keep the more messy snacks at bay :-)

On Friday, we will need lots of manpower for the carnival setup! If you can help, give Pastor or me the hours you are available. Probably the earier in the day, the better.

And don't forget - if you have kids coming, start changing your dollars and coins into pennies!! The penny offering is always a BIG hit with the kiddos.

I will be sending out an e-mail today with all of the things we discussed at ladies' meeting on Tuesday night to recap. Thanks for all of your help and hours sacrificed to make this, our first VBS, a great event! Let's really bath it in prayer. We want to see God do great things through this wonderful outreach.
