Praise Report from Calvary's All Aboard VBS!

7/31/20 | The Weekly | by Mary Jane Edwards

    Hello Church Family!

    We’ve reached the station and our three day VBS journey has been truly amazing. God has done wonderful things in the lives of the children as beautiful memories were formed surrounding deep faith conversations with their caregivers. 

    Over 800 kids and hundreds of parents and caregivers enjoyed three days of character shenanigans, worship through music, crafts, learning about missions with the Pazmiños, and experiencing the Bible in their own home through Bible exploration. We are rejoicing over all the amazing things God has done.

    This adventure isn't over yet!

     
    Look below for ways you can help make a difference, celebrate with us, and take a next step in your faith as we wrap up All Aboard VBS!

    Thank You!

    Thank you for all of your donations, prayers, and enthusiasm during this year’s All Aboard VBS. This has certainly been an unconventional week of VBS here at Calvary, but as we have been learning this week, Jesus has the power to help us do hard things, He will give us hope in difficult times, and His power and love will never leave us! It is Jesus who has the power to pull us through life’s ups and downs.
     

    Thank you for jumping onboard for this week of off the rails fun!
