Beginning
tonight, our church will host Vacation Bible School
for the children of our church and the community. VBS will be one of the most
important outreach events of the summer, possibly of the year.VBS is important
because children are important to God. Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me. Don’t stop them, for the kingdom
of God belongs to such as these” (Mark 10:14).
There’s an aging of the church in America. Fewer children fill
the seats than 30 years ago.
VBS provides an opportunity to share the Gospel with children in
an exciting manner. We have never let the size of our church or the lack of
workers to ever prevent our church from hosting a VBS. Even before we had a
building we put on a VBS. Jesus told us
to, “Pray to the Lord of the harvest to
send out workers into His harvest (Luke 10:2). God desires children to know
Him.
VBS is one of the most time-consuming, largest outreaches any
church will offer. As much as the work, cost and involvement is required to
host a VBS, the results can and we pray will be tremendous. Will you pray today
that God will bring dozens of new children to our VBS tonight?
Do you know any young people 4 years old through incoming 5th
graders? Please invite them to “WEIRD ANIMALS” tonight through Thursday night
and it is all for FREE! Show up at 5:45 pm or contact C3 ‘s
