Galactic Thanks!--
We all had a blast and just like that, it’s over! BIG, Galactic thanks to all the parents and grandparents, relatives and friends who brought and picked us up each day, to the St. Paul’s Church office staff, and the more-than 70 junior & high school students and adults who planned, entered data, purchased, decorated, painted, “tunneled”, guided, taught, performed, registered, counted, comforted, sang, crafted, played and prayed with the kids this week! We are also grateful to God for the many donors of all the graham crackers, pony beads, pool noodles, paper towel tubes, washi tape, blue jello, tealights, black lights, masking tape, bananas, star stickers, and mod podge it takes to pull off an inspired VBS for 175 registered kids. Plus we had a full nursery and our first VBS with air-conditioning—praise God! Cosmic thanks to Mrs. Lindsey Hayes for being our fearless Director this year, and Pastor Kleinschmidt from Redeemer Lutheran Church in Highland for the loan of their cool rocket and planets! Kim Mullen rebuilt the tunnel just for us, and Thrivent supported our crafts! Whew! |

What is Vacation Bible School?
Vacation Bible School (VBS) is a summer tradition that goes back for decades! Our VBS is a free, five-day summer camp run by volunteers. From 9 am to noon, kids are immersed in theme-based and energized environment where they get to develop a personal relationship with God by engaging in Bible-learning and fun with their peers.
Each day is jam-packed with positive messages, safe play, and Gospel truths that will get kids thinking about how God works in their own lives. Music, skits, hands-on learning, snacks, creative time, physical gameplay, and stories that come alive in the hands of trained educators. Kids come home exhausted and brimming with talk of new friends, new experiences and reflection. VBS is perfect introduction for the under-churched and life-application for the "seasoned" young Christian.
