Tabor Vacation Bible School


I had the opportunity to finally be able to join the kids that were participating in Tabor United Methodist Church's Crocodile Dock Vacation Bible School Program. It was a three day program that was Monday-Wednesday of this week. I was honored to have the opportunity to lead the storytelling segment this morning. They will be having a celebration tonight at 7:00PM for all parents, family and friends of those that participants. From what I've heard, they had 35 kids from the great Eden area that participated. That is amazing.

The curriculum centered around five keys words and the ministry of Jesus. For instance, the key word for my storytelling focused on the word "seek." The story was about the four men bringing the paralyzed man through the roof of the busy house to that Jesus could heal him. We focused on the people's resolve to get in as well as the great gift of forgiveness and healing that Jesus gave to the man. Then the children had music time, crafts time, game time and science time to learn and reinforce the concept. I wish I would have been able to check out more than one day.

I want to thank all of the volunteers and coordinators that put in a great deal of time to make this event a success. It was great to see so many kids enthusiastic and excited to learn about about Jesus Christ!
