Special THANK YOU to all who helped with VBS. We could not have made this such a huge success without each and everyone of you! The children learned how God is with them wherever they go. They enjoyed water games and even a rock wall climbing adventure. The children ended VBS with our Deep Sea Discovery float at Watermelon Days. God is good!
