The Wise Man built his house upon the Rock!

Vacation Bible School 2019

“The Wise Man built his house upon the Rock, the rains came tumbling down, and the house on the rock stood firm!”

The words of this VBS song rang through the auditorium as over 50 kids sang the words and moved their hands in the actions of this song, based on one of Jesus’ teachings.  The theme of “Building a better life with Jesus’ at this year’s Vacation Bible School was reinforced by the LEGO themed decorations and crafts projects the children participated in during the event.

Puppets and skits were used to teach lessons about kindness to others (John 4:1-42, Jesus and the Samaritan woman), Jesus’ power over fear, evil and disease (John 9, Healing the Blind man and  Mark 5:1-20, Curing the demon-possessed man), and everyone is worth saving (Acts 22, Saul of Tarsus becomes a Christian).

The four evening event wrapped up on Wednesday with singing, a puppet performance and skit about Jesus and Saul, a baptism into Christ, and an ice cream and cookie social on the lawn.  It was a great time for everyone, and a worthwhile investment in the hearts and souls of the kids who attended to learn about how to “Build a better life with Jesus”.
