Spiritual Sunday: bible school week


This week at our church is VBS. There are many people at church working together to get everything done. This year our theme is Go Adventure. With everything being a mission of sorts. Mine this year is a session of making trail mix for the fire and police department that work so hard protecting us. The part that touched my heart is that we are all working together getting ready for the great week and expecting all the young children to come.



“Let the little children come to Me.” Matthew 19:14

Jesus instructed us to go and tell all about him for that was our great commission. To me that includes even the littlest among us.


Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (NIV) Mathew 28:19




The week will seem long at times and before we know it will be quickly over. I pray that a seed will be touched in a little heart and planted with love. Oh that a child would first hear about Jesus at a bible school classroom is a very great possibility. I ask for you to all pray for our workers, for patience, for health, for the students to be ready to listen as well as have fun, that a word will be shared or an action displayed that shares the love that Jesus offered all of us.

  1. VBS is a great experience for children. I'm sure things they learn there will influence the rest of their lives.

  3. I went to my first VBS when I was a teenager. I learned Scripture that I have never forgotten and I preached my first sermon (Three minutes) at the end of the school. For years I directed and taught in Vacation Bible Schools. Many children have been and are continuing to be blessed through this good work. Maybe the adults are blessed the most. I'm glad you are involved with this. Much good will be done.

  5. Annie, I have just prayed for VBS and it's powerful affect on your community. Children are so impressionable and I agree, wouldn't it be wonderful for the little ones to hear about Jesus.

    Thank you for the powerful comment you left on my blog. I'm sure many will be inspired of God's surprise miracle.

  6. I will pray for the VBS at your church! It's been a few years since we have had one at our church. I'm sure the community misses it.
    God Bless,

  12. They didn't have Vacation Bible School when I was young. This sounds like it would be a good fit for religious families who want to give their child a different experience.

  14. I have to find out when our VBS will start. This would offer children the best life foundation they could ever have. Putting Jesus at the center of their lives and spreading love to others is the one thing I would want my kids to learn.
