2008 VBS Theme is
Friendship Trek
Jesus, our Forever Friend
Friends are great gifts from God… and the greatest friend of
all is Jesus, our Savior!
Grab your gear and join Friendship Trek, an amazing hike through
the Bible to meet Jesus, our Forever Friend. Kids find fun,
faith, and friends at Friendship Trek. They experience Jesus’
friendship, enjoy meeting old and new friends, and learn to care
for one another.
Kids explore five friend-filled
Bible stories about Jesus. They run to follow Jesus as He
reaches out to a new friend named Matthew. They go along as a
centurion’s friends ask Jesus to heal the man’s servant—and
He does! They traipse to the temple as Jesus heals a blind
friend, then go to Bethany to see Jesus raise His friend Lazarus
from the dead. Finally, they scurry to a locked room on Easter
evening to witness the ultimate love Jesus showed by giving His
life for His friends.
Mark your calendars for a fun
filled week at St. Paul’s starting on Sunday, July 20 through
Friday, July 25, 2008 from 5pm-8pm. Help the children to go on
their Friendship Trek by serving as: Teachers for Level 1 (Ages
3-5); Level 3 (Ages 6-8); Level 4 (Ages 9-12); Music, Crafts,
Snacks, Recess, Decorations, Skit, and Kitchen help. We provide
all the resources you need. Thanks for taking the time to pray
and consider this request. If you have any questions or
concerns, please contact us, Denise Hubbard (592-8161); Vanessa
Queen (581-9331); or Kim Hays (592-0308).
Hello friend!
We’re going on a Friendship Trek, and we’d like you to
come with us! St. Paul’s Lutheran Church is sponsoring
Friendship Trek, a Vacation Bible School program on July 20-25
from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
At Friendship Trek, we’ll find the truth about Jesus. We’ll
meet new friends, get to do fun activities, hear great Bible
stories, sing awesome songs, make crafts, play games, eat
snacks, and more! It’s going to be fun, but it would be more
fun with you there.
Can you join us? Let’s ask our parents to talk about
getting us there.
Your friends, Raya Raccoon, Buddy, Baldwin Eagle, Rocky Ram
and Honey Bear
Jesus, our Forever Friend Friends are great
gifts from God… and the greatest friend of all is Jesus, our
Savior!
Vision
Committee
Our Vision Committee is open to all members of St. Paul’s. The
purpose of the Vision Committee is to spark ideas and practical
ways that may help us live out our Value Statements and our
Mission Statement. We plan to meet quarterly, this month meeting
on the 5th Tuesday evening, April 29.
The Vision Committee then passes the ideas along to the
appropriate Board or Committee of the Congregation, for them to
further evaluate and carry out as they decide.
Do you have an idea for the life of our congregation and our
mission together? Please join us on April 29 to share your
ideas.
