Vacation Bible School - 2010
 

We had another successful VBS this year and thank all of our volunteers, parents and supporters. We had about 65 kids attend and 40 adults and teenagers who taught, helped or cooked during the week. Everyone had a great time and the kids learned a lot.

Each of the five evening sessions included an opening and closing program, where we learned songs, saw a puppet show, listened to announcements and prayed. The classes then rotated between a Bible lesson, crafts, outdoor play time and snacks. The theme this year was Hero Headquarters, and we learned about unlikely Bible heroes who are often overlooked. They were not famous leaders, but their small acts were used by God to do wonderful things!

For our service project this year, we collected non-perishable food items for a local food pantry and items for a near-by family whose home had recently been destroyed by a fire. Two carts of items were given to the Red Cross for this family, and 1,322 cans were delivered to Peter’s Pantry in Elmer!

Special thanks to:
~ Jennifer Guht (our VBS Director) and her team of volunteers.
~ The LIFE Class for again donating tee shirts.
~ Everyone who provided the dinners each night. This was really appreciated by our workers.
~ ShopRite of Mullica Hill and Advantage Embroidery for their support.

Watch for next year’s VBS dates to be announced.
