This was Andrew's first year to officially participate in VBS. He wasn't quite sure what to expect his first day but loved it more and more each day. Every night before bedtime, he would ask me if he could go to VBS the next day. He had many fun stories to tell us, and he especially loved learning the music. He's still watching the videos and singing the songs all the time.

Opening Assembly...
I had the privilege of working with the Kindergarten group (about 45 kids) in the craft room, and we had a great week! Our theme for the room was the Great Barrier Reef.
I had a break from my group while Andrew was in the craft room, so I loved peeking in on him and seeing them work on their projects.
During VBS, we collected money for a missionary that is currently serving. The girls raised more money, so Gary had to dye his hair for the week. He definitely looked like a snow cone from SnoBiz.
Closing Assembly for the week...
Here are a few pictures from Family Fun Night. Andrew had a lot of fun on the slides!
Here's a video of the kids performing the VBS songs during Sunday morning worship.
Gary made a short video that captures most of the week. Here's the link to the Children's Ministry Website. We had an awesome group of volunteers that worked many hours to make this week a huge success! We are so blessed to work with them.
