Crocodile Dock

Friday, July 24th, 2009

We just completed our Crocodile Rock VBS.    Wow!    We had some good problems to solve.  Like reordering T-shirts because we ran out.    We reached 50 children during the week with an average attendance of about 38.   These numbers are about twice the numbers from last year.    I think around 25 adults and youth volunteered at various points during the week. 

This was due to having a great team, a great set , and great word of mouth advertising.   After the first and second day we continued to get new registrations from families who heard of the fun their neighbors were having.

It was great to hear the church come alive as the sanctuary space was cleared out for VBS.  It was refreshing to hear the kids singing, having a great time and learning something about how to live their Christian life.  (Fear Not!)

We extend our thanks to the Children’s Theature and the Grace Bible church who let us use items for our sets
