Studio Go! Game Show

Today we had the closing program for an exciting week of Vacation Bible School. We had 23 children attend, with only 6 being regular attenders. We learned about Gideon (with Kev dressed up as "General Barley Bread"), Esther, Jesus raising from the dead, Peter and Annanias. The kids made some really fun crafts and had yummy snacks. I taught the preshcool and kindergarten class, and we had a great time. The curriculum had some very fun, creative ways to reinforce the theme for the day. We even had a game show each night, providing lots of opportunities for kids to come on stage and have fun. (One girl even won $5 in "Let's Make a Deal"). On the first night, the host picked a boy from my group to come up and answer questions, of course this led Logan to believe that he could come up on stage too. He knew the answers and was very vocal! For the closing program, Logan did the opening prayer.

Kevin led the music all week, including teaching the kids the actions to all of the songs. He did a great job! He was even able to get the older boys to participate-no easy feat. He also led the Jr./Sr. High time from 9-10 pm. We now have 3 girls who are very excited to come to youth group, along with two others that will probably come. This is an unexpected development, and we are praising God for it. Now the real work begins of maintaining relationships with the unchurched families that God has brought to us.
