Bridge of Peace Vacation Bible School
Held July 15-19, 2013
“Faith Alive!”
Let all that you do be done in love.
—1Corinthians 16:14
At Bridge of Peace Vacation Bible School the love of God poured out like much needed rain over all the children and adults this entire week. The loud laughter of children could probably have been heard back at Saint Matt’s. The counselors from Cross Roads were extremely qualified youth leaders and motivated and engaged all ages-they were by example an inspiration to everyone. The parents provided encouraging feedback and praises that their children were in a safe place and full of love. On Friday Wegman’s and SMLC Lunch Bunch blessed each child to take home a large bag filled with extra sandwiches and goodies-many thanks.
This entire experience has been a blessing for me. I have formed many wonderful life-long relationships. Thank you to all at SMLC for awarding me this opportunity to serve in this ministry. I am honored to represent you and hope to serve at our own VBS next year.
- Thanks for your guidance and direction: Pastor Ingrid, Bill and Kim
- The chaperones/crafters were very much appreciated by the Cross Roads Counselors and enjoyed by the children.
- Thanks also for the abundantly delicious baked cookies-not a crumb was left.
- Thanks so much to our financial donors (including WELCA); your graciousness far exceeded my hopes.
- My deepest thanks go to my dear husband, Jim, and our Father God.
