One of the young boys attending VBS this week asked Hermana Eva if she would tell the same Bible story about Lazarus and Jesus again the next day. She said that they would be having a new Bible story each day. To this, the little boy replied, "No, you should tell the same one again, it's such a good one." When was the last time you asked your Sunday School teacher or Pastor to teach or preach the same thing the next day? I know that I was challenged as I considered how casually I sometimes hear and respond to the stories from the Bible!
We continue to have a good week with near 80 kids each day. Today was the final day and was a "Game Day" with jumping rope, tug-of-war, water balloons, and tag games. Tomorrow afternoon is the closing session and a church service in which the kids will receive their certificates. Please pray with us that many of these kids and adolescents and their families will join us in worship and will keep coming back.
