VBS Concluded

VBS at Southside Baptist Church concluded last night with Family Night. We had a great time. Children had a great time memorizing Bible verses, arts and crafts, outside activities, dance, snacks and of course the Red "C" finaly. There were several visitors. For us it was encouraging to see several neighborhood children who attended nightly we had visited with several weeks ago along with their parents for the conclusion last night.

It was also encouraging to see new faces with excitement about learning God's Word. The lessons they learned thoughout the week were: God Is Real, Jesus Is God's Son, Jesus Is The Only Way, The Bible is God's Word, Let My Actions Show What I Know.

God blessed the efforts of all who were involved in this years VBS.

VBS

This Saturday kicks off the VBS at Southside Baptist Church for this year. We will kick off with a Luau at the church property on Highway 97 just past the airport next to the L&L store. It should be a great time of learning God's Word and just old fashion fun. Free hotdogs, chips and snacks for all.

Pray that this year will be especially blessed. In recent years there hasn't been much parcipitation, as we have been told. Nonetheless, we are "preparing for rain" and are confident that God will make it a success. We have been in prayer, knocking on doors with handouts, advertising, and speaking to a large number of children and their parents in our neighborhood over the past two months. All have responded positively.

For us this VBS isn't about adding numbers to our church, it's about adding souls unto God. Come and join us this Saturday at 6:00.
