The kids attended or served at Pittsford Community Church’s VBS this year. It was the 25th year of VBS for the church, and it was our family’s 10 year to attend. We’ve gone from having two boys in the 4 year old and post-Kindergarten classes, to having the boys both lead, and the girls all attend. This year I served, as well. I said I was happy to help anywhere but craft. At first they put me down for security, but after the first day they asked me to support the P4 (4 year old preschoolers) class. This was extra cool, because it was where Nigel was serving.
After three years of being an assistant in Bible Stewart was asked to lead one of the Bible teams. His friend Brian was assigned to be his assistant and it worked out most excellently.
Katriel got to go and was put in the 3 year old classroom, even though she is not yet 2½. She handled it very well, and it was probably more fun for her then 3 hours of nursery time. I got to see her frequently as her group and the group I was in were out and about.
Nigel served both in the drama and in P4.
In P4 he brought the bear Akili to life.
In P4 he brought the bear Akili to life.
He also manned the coloring station. I was his assistant.
His other role was as Archie Nemesis, the bad guy in the drama.
Johanna was so happy to see her friend Laura everyday and give her big hugs.
Thursday was the famous water day. They had waterslides and obstacle courses for the kids.
Thursday evening there was an evening program where the kids sang their songs for us.
It was so much fun. Next year Marie will be old enough to help. I can’t wait to serve again!!!
