Stayton (Ore.) Church members gathered this year to start an expedition. The Everest-themed Vacation Bible School loomed over the group gathered one Sunday to get the church ready for a week that would be remembered by everyone who took part.
To say that this Sunday was the start of VBS would not be totally true; as with all great expeditions, this one started much earlier, with planning and gathering the needed equipment. By the end of the day, Base Camp, mountains and ice caves were made. Now the leaders just had to wait for the kids.
The next day, the kids came. Each day was filled with songs, Bible stories, science experiments, yummy food and fun games. By the end of the week, the kids and staff alike were humming and singing along with the songs.
But like all expeditions, VBS had to come to an end. As the kids learned on their last day, “God generously provides all that is needed" (2 Cor. 9:8) ... and more.
The kids were taught about the power of forgiveness at the Everest-themed Vacation Bible School.
The Everest-themed Vacation Bible School was a week that will be remembered by everyone who took part.
