Vacation Bible School

It's that time of year...VBS season is starting! I got in on the fun at Holden last week.


The theme was "Hometown Nazareth: Where Jesus Was a Boy." So some very talented folks painted Nazarene backdrops for our excursion.




My favorite touch is that they included Aspelund, a nearby town (or sort-of former town) in the direction signage.




The kids worked hard and had fun with their craft projects and food projects and all sorts of other learning.




And they learned what's on this banner: that God has called them by name and they belong to him (Isaiah 43:1).




One of the theme songs for the week was "Nothing Is Impossible With God," (Luke 1:37) and that is proven by the fact that VBS went so smoothly with so many kids doing so many different things all in one place! Kudos to everyone who put in so much planning and effort!
