Our
Wild Ride Through God’s Word was a success. Each evening we had an average
of 85 kids that attended. It was exciting to see them learning more
about God and having such a great time. Here is a quick review of our week.
One
of the highlights of the evening was the Sing N’ Play which introduced and
reviewed the Bible point for the day. In addition, the kids sang praise
songs that got them up and moving and watched a skit that was a lot of fun
too.
There
were five stations the kids rotated through that repeated the Bible Point in
various ways. In Chadder’s Theater they watched an exciting
cliffhanger video segment and explored the Bible verses for the day. In Chuck
Wagon Chow they had great snacks to reinforce the Daily Bible Point.
For example, On Day 4 the kids had Awesome Avalanche Surprises, which reminded
them that God is awesome. Horseplay Games encouraged them to
apply what they learned while having lots of fun. It was hot that week
so of course the kids loved the water games. Each evening had a new
drama in Wild Bible Adventure. This is where they learned Bible
Stories such as the Israelites crossing the Jordan River. The kids even
got wet here as they walked across their own “river.” In Cowpoke
Crafts, the children made items that they could take home to remind them
of what they learned that evening in VBS.
It
sounds like it was a great week doesn’t it? VBS wouldn’t have
happened though without all the support and prayers from our church.
There were so many people involved, many of them behind the scenes.
Thank you to all those that helped make Avalanche Ranch happen. I
can’t list them all but I really appreciate your dedication to serve God by
reaching out to the children of our community.
Our
Wild Ride Through God’s Word at this year’s Vacation Bible
School has ended; but we pray that this journey in Christ is just beginning
with the children that attended Avalanche Ranch.
