Family Missions - Believe in God…Honoring Him Above All
The first day of Vacation Bible School was a success!! We had about 45 kids in Vacation Bible School, 6 women in Adult Bible Study, and 25 at the Senior Center. Ken had three neat experiences that came out of Vacation Bible School. A girl named Sasha came up to him asking for Molly, one of the girls from West Virginia. Another girl came up to Ken and told him that he was right near her heart on her t-shirt. This showed Ken that the kids do remember us, and we do make a difference in their lives. A boy named Lawrence shared with Ken that his brother had been run over and killed by a car. This revealed to Ken that the kids did have some trust in us to be able to share such precious information with one of us. Marlene, one of the women in the Adult Bible Study, gave Dawn a sterling silver bracelet.
Pam, Jim, and Philip spent the day scraping paint off of the White Horse Church. In the afternoon, Alec, Trey, Ronnie, McKenna, Andrew, and Lauren joined them and scraped paint off of the third wall. The arrival of the teens really encouraged the adults in their work.
John Dillard again reminded us that church was what we do in every part of our lives from home to work. Life is 90 percent about showing up, not necessarily being busy.
