Sponge Bob & Patrick shave their heads for the KiDS in Honduras!

And exactly who was it playing our "Honorable Judge the Lord"?

It is Sheree Reece! Her favorite thing about playing the role of God was finally, finally being all-knowing. In real life Sheree is mother of 3 and works in Beyond KC Missions at Resurrection.

VBC Drama Director Tina Allen

Tina Allen, in a previous life prior to 3 kids, worked in regional theater, where her favorite role was playing Mrs. Anna in "The King and I". She is the extraordinary individual who is in charge of drama for VBC. She says she couldn't do it alone and credits these fine folks for help:
Christy Kelley, Debbie Harris, and Chris Heise.

A GREAT WEEK OF CAMP!!

Out of the Whale, Into the City!

It may have been raining outside Thursday, but inside it was a sea of activity at VBC. After 3 days and 3 nights inside the whale's belly, it took a whole lot of praying and obeying God for Jonah to get out of the whale!

Mr. Salty and Captain Mack think our VBC campers are the best! Here are the totals as of Day 4:

Money for El Obraje Kids - $4,584.36

Day 3 Drama - God speaks to the "King" of Ninevah

If you see a "National Enquirer" headline reporting: Elvis sighted in Kansas, there may be a little truth to it. You see, our very own Elvis impersonator stopped by drama yesterday to represent the King of ninevah. Jonah helped the King of Rock & Roll learn who the real King is - as did our campers.

Matthew's Ministry Part of VBC

Our Matthew's Ministry is actively involved with VBC. Nine special needs adults and lots of kids participate in the VBC Matthew's Ministry program. Children can be provided with one-on-one assistance as well. It's a great program and young and old alike enjoy the week learning about God.

Now this is cool!
