Camp E.D.G.E. ~ Our decorations were awesome this year! Thanks to Misty, April and Katie for all their hard work!
Thanks so much to all of you that made our Vacation Bible School such a success this year! We had a great week where we learned about living on the E.D.G.E. (Experience and Discover God Everywhere)!
During the week, we averaged about 90 kids per night. This year, we supported the Long family (home missionaries to Colorado) with our offering. We always have a competition between the boys and the girls to see which group can bring the most money for the offering, and this year the boys were victorious, so Mrs. Amanda got a pie in the face on Friday night (sorry that I don't have a picture of that! I forgot my camera that night, although I'm sure Mrs. Amanda doesn't mind...). Together, the boys and girls raised over $700 for the Long family! Way to go, kids!
We were also blessed to have one little boy pray for Jesus to come into his heart at VBS this week. That's truly what it's all about - the studying, decorating, cooking... We can get so wrapped up in how busy we are and our to do lists for the week and forget why we're really here - to introduce Jesus to these kids and their families.
Once again, thanks to all of you that worked with us and prayed for us during the week. We are so excited about what God is doing at Sulphur Springs!
