REVved - Summer VBS at FBC
Yesterday, our DVBS (Daily Vacation Bible School) team launched our VBS 2008 with over 600 kids! The theme is “Outrigger Island: Living God’s Unshakeable Truth!” During services over the weekend, we commissioned our workers for this week of ministry to kids. Tomorrow morning I will be sharing a brief devotional with all of our volunteers around the theme — “Wave 3 Truth” – Jesus is the Only Way! I’ll also be praying during elementary and preschool rallies at 9 and 10 am, respectively. I can’t tell you how excited I am that FBC has such a powerful summer ministry to kids. It seems to get better every year.
Pray that God will touch these precious kids with the simple truth that Jesus is THE only way! We’re hoping to see scores of kids respond with faith in Christ this week.
As far as I am concerned, VBS is like Christmas in June! We were all so happy when we heard that 21 kids accepted Christ on Wednesday, and there were more by the end of the week--not to mention the over $1,200 they raised for the missions fund when the goal was $750! It is by far the best week of my summer, and I'm sure many of the kids would say the same. Thanks for helping out with our morning devos!
