Vacation Bible School Part 1

We're finally back on the road! :o) After such a hectic time at home it's almost a relief to be back in the swing of things (ALMOST). Anyway, I'm going to share some of the highlights of VBS and of our time with Laurie and the kids.


Welcome to Cowtown...this is where it all took place! :o)


There was singing....


Accompanied by Laurie on the keyboard...


I don't think we have any pictures of Laurie telling the Bible story or doing the memory verse games...she did an excellent job, as usual!!

And NOW.....THE DRAMA

Each night we had a little skit that kind of summed up the lessons. It was about a young sheepherder named "Davy". (Get the picture?)

This young man (Nelson) played Davy.


And of course, every story has to have a villain. Ours was none other than Snakeoil Snidely (played by Pastor Charles).

Then, there was the Narrator, Windy (played by Tim the first couple nights, and then by one our teens, Julian, the other three nights).

Davy had a girlfriend (Sweet Clementine), but for some reason we don't have any pictures of her. :o(

Then, we had Sheriff Saul and Deputy John. Our puppeteers, Omar and Mario did a fabulous job with them!

I'll share more about VBS soon, but this is a start, right? Just check back and you'll see some of the crafts and outdoor games we did. I'd just like to note that all of this was coordinated by my very talented sister! It's amazing how much work went into this week long production! She never ceases to amaze me!!

Oh stop! No go on. I did put alot of thought and time into this and prayer and studying for the Bible Stories but then felt like I wasn't doing enough of the work load. I would do it all over again though. It was a fun time.
