Vacation Bible School

Alamosa Christian Reformed Church (June 6-10)

Jamie went with his friends, Spencer and Ashley, to the Vacation Bible School held at the Alamosa Christian Reformed Church. Julie participates in a Women's Bible Study at this church and was asked to help teach the kindergarten class with Michelle. The VBS theme was "Prayer Safari" and we learned the Lord's Prayer. We also learned some cool new songs. Jamie had fun in Mrs. Sinclair's class playing with the kids and doing fun craft projects. Julie enjoyed her small, but enthusiastic, group of kindergartners.

Trinity Lutheran Church (June 13-17)

Jamie started out this week of Vacation Bible School with only his friend, Ashley. He found that he had other friends there (Hunter, Danielle and Aaron) but he really missed Spencer. So, we made some phone calls and Spencer started coming on Wednesday. The theme for this week was also safari related and they followed the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Some of their cool craft projects included making soap, decorating their VBS T-shirt and decorating a safari hat. Jamie's teacher was Mrs. Gaunt and he really enjoyed himself, even knowing that mom was not across the hall in another class. Everyday we asked him what he learned that day and his response was, "learned about God". When we questioned further, he say, "and Jesus". We figure that those are good things to learn about when you're three years old and going to Vacation Bible School. On Friday, the parents were invited to a program and hot dog lunch.
