From Marsha Powell:
This
morning was bittersweet as we wrapped up the last day of VBS. The kids are so adorable and have been very
receptive to learning about Jesus. It
has been a privilege to help lead the music sessions and work with the team in
all the different stations we set up for the children. You couldn't ask for a better team to do
ministry with. Praise God for Andrea
Clingenpeel's great organization of VBS.
We began each morning with a worship session of music and learning the
VBS Bible verse, Ps. 118:24 Then we
separated the kids into 4 separate groups and rotated them through the areas of
teaching time with Mrs. Hat (great job by Tammy Shondelmyer), games, crafts,
and snacks. 
All in
all, we ended up ministering to about 50
kids and we were able to send each child home today with their very own Bible.
I'm sure you will agree, that is something we take for granted - having our
very own Bibles! We are praying the children will keep coming back for the Crusades and bringing their parents and friends.
On
another note, Lisa already mentioned this but for those of you who were
concerned, I only had to go without Dr Pepper for the first day here and they
didn't even have to call the ambulance. God is
good!
From Lisa Hess:
Another packed tent for Crusade, even with some rain! We have really connected to this village and are starting to realize we'll have to leave them soon. Frowny face... We did get lots of pictures and a chance to shop for souvenirs this afternoon...we'll be remembering them for a long time.
