Dancing with the Stars; Singing with the Lads

VBC's dancing stars are teaching our campers the latest dance moves to the music from The Lads. The Lads, a Christian band, hail from New Zealand. They are a household name in New Zealand and in May began filming their second season of a TV sitcom - about three guys wanting to start a band. Their CD is available for sale at the Well Book Store.

Go to Sleep Little Darling

Tonight when you're tucking your camper into bed, take a moment to notice their cushy pillow, the soft mattress, and the sheets and blankets that keep them warm. Around the world, orphans are sleeping on dirt or cement floors, on beds falling apart and on mattresses which are no longer sanitary. Sweet Sleep, with help from our donations, is changing that with a goal of "A bed for every head". Sweet Sleep works in Haiti, Africa, and Moldova. Our donations will go to children in Haiti.

Tuesday's Missions Totals!

Today our kids collected $2,151.39 for children's beds in Haiti bringing us to a total so far of $2,614.63!

We also collected 776 more books for KC kids bringing that total to 1,672!

Just heard a story about 5 year old Lucia who slept on the floor last night to see what it was like for the millions of kiddos who don't have a bed. When she woke up in the morning she collected a bunch of change around the house and brought it to VBC for our mission project! WOW! Anyone else have a story about how the mission project is impacting your kiddos?

Thanks kids and parents!

It's Complicated

It's not easy explaining to children how Saul turns into Paul. So, VBC borrowed from the Star Wars trilogy to make sense of it all. Just as Anakin Skywalker turns to the dark side and becomes Darth Vader (who later does a 360-thanks to the Force of his son Luke) so goes our Bible story. Saul and his evil ways are defeated by the Force of Christ and he becomes Paul. Paul experiences an amazing, exalting journey as an apostle of Christ, and our campers get to witness it first-hand this week through stories, drama, and music.

A Day in the Life of a VBC Camper

A camper's day begins with a class prayer, followed by a Faith Wars communique', delivered via video. Today it was a message from our very own VBC Princess Leia. The campers head to drama and music, then back to the classroom for story time. When the lesson is done, kids go to rec or craft. Always, there is a delicious snack. After all, all good Padawans need to be rewarded.
