I had the incredible privilege of getting to document this year's VBS at our church. This program is for kids who have completed kinder-5th grade. However, if you volunteer, then your preschoolers get to attend their own modified program.
Last year, I was a group leader for a bunch of adorable kindergartners, and I rotated through each section with them, but this year I had the BEST job! I got to see every single thing that went on, every rotation, every group, every story, every craft. I just floated from place to place like a fly on the wall. Wow, what an experience!
Children were led to Christ, personal stories were shared, relationships were solidified, people were inspired ... it was just incredible. I am so proud of my friend, Brigitte, who coordinated the whole thing, but also humbled and amazed by every single person who worked to make it all come together.
I took hundreds of pictures, but here are a few of my faves:
volunteers praying
God sightings (where kids wrote down all the ways they saw God's goodness)
my favorite (Laurel is my friend, Mel's, little girl)
praying over blankets they made for children in the hospital
This one had me crying. The kids had their "sin" wrapped around their arms. One by one, they removed their sin and placed it on the cross, giving it over to Jesus.
speaks for itself
music time
one of the many amazing Bible stories I sawI was so blessed to have been a part of this incredible week!!
