Hey y'all! Well with the start of the new year I am officially all about our VBS in Ethiopia (but let's be honest that's nearly all I can think or talk about anyway).
The four of us teachers and Tyrone met up with some people at Grangerland Church of Christ to discuss them coming to help us next year. We got some definate interest so we are hoping to encourage that and continue to find others interested in coming. So if you are...please talk to us. It's not a commitment yet it's just giving you some information so you can discuss it with your family and see if it's a good fit for you. So get ahold of me, Joanie, Rusty, Alma, or Tyrone and let us know any reservations you have, or any questions.
So now on with some fun stuff!! We have narrowed down some stories we want to do, but no final decisions have been made. We hope to make those Sunday when we meet. The stories we have are Noah and the flood, Abraham and Isaac, Moses and the burning bush/plages, David and Goliath, Daniel and the lion's den, Hannah, and Rehab the Harlot. Since we have 7 stories and 5 days we have to cut a couple and maybe see if Chan will teach one of the stories we want covered the first Sunday we are there. We also have to see how we want to do Moses since that's a lot of ground to cover. Obviously some discussion is needed on this. The past couple of days I've been working on ideas for crafts. I think I found/thought of some pretty good stuff that I think will be easy/light supplies, that we can carry in bulk, and will be fun for the kids to make. Just gotta show the ladies and see what they think or came up with.
I am really really excited to get things going this year. I have been chomping at the bit since I got back to share my story and try to get more to come with us.
I have opened up a paypal account if you'd like to donate that way. I will also accept cash or checks.
God Bless!
