VBS 2011

We had VBS last week.Our theme liberty in Christ & in our nation (July 4rth)


An evangelist gave challenging messages each night. The kids earned points to win the chalk drawings. They earned points by bringing a Bible, memory verse, bring a guest etc.








Here is my hubby who is an ex-Marine but with his long beard looks more like a mid-eastern soldier lol .He is still a soldier of the cross (loved that hymn in the past WB)
Not only was there chalk drawings but puppet.I wish I would of video taped the history of the Christan flag since it was one of the recommend studies for the Wisdom Booklets.

One of the the things that saddened me as it was discussed through out the week was how so many Americans do not know the how our nation was founded on Christianity. I am so thankful we homeschool and are able to learn the true history of our great country. It really make me proud to be an American and pass the story on to the next generation my children.









Community kids writing their verses to memorize.This is what it is all about :O)


Nehemiah showing one of the crafts he made.




Job won a picture and the artist Gary made my day when he brought in an oil painting of Noah's Ark for the baby as a gift. That was the message that spoke to me the most.How God calls us to be righteous even when others don't.








Salvation messages of course !















Game time!












End of the VBS celebration with all American hotdogs. My older children served in VBS passing out food and helping their Dad in game time.













I just loved the chalk talks and would love to take the Eternity Arts course offered by IBLP(ATI) .My husband who has an evangelistic heart could give the message while I drew on the streets and fairs :O) Some day in another season. In the meantime maybe my Joe the artist can take the course in the near future.

My favorite blogs :O)
