Wednesday was HAIR DAY, with some wild and wacky doos. We had colored, geled, extended, and pig-tailed! Rubberbands were in abundance. So were the kids - with 96 in attendance.
Today's serious business - getting to learn how to Get God's Love! - in the Good Samaritan's story. Mrs. Lisa used a game in her Bible class to reinforce the lesson, while Mr. Marshall extended his room into the hallway for a drama, complete with fake blood and bandages. The boys especially enjoyed the lesson.
Back at the Rain Forest with 94 brave explorers. Today, we learned just how much God loves us in the Parable of the Lost Sheep. The Shepherd - Jesus - left the 99 sheep to find the one who lost its way.
In crafts, everyone got to make their own sheep: cotton ball sheep masks in K Crafts and fuzzy sheep magnets in 1st - 6th - reminders that we, too, are like sheep.
We even ate sheep crackers - BAAAA!
While we made lots of white crafts, we wore tons of GREEN today. The color was all over the place.
Don't forget - CRAZY HAIR DAY Wednesday! Remember - Mr. Daniel!
VBS Son-Quest Rain Forest is finally here! We're off to a great start with 98 kids and lots of workers the first day. We learned about the Parable of the 4 Soils in Bible, and built on that theme in crafts by making a sod baby with GREEN HAIR.
Speaking of GREEN, tomorrow is GREEN DAY! Wear your green stuff. Mr. Daniel is all mixed up. He forgot that WED. is CRAZY HAIR DAY.
Snacks were crazy good - DIRT PUDDING with GUMMY WORMS, chips and kool-aid. Yum! Wonder what we're having tomorrow?
This summer, June 14th - 18th from 9 a.m. until noon, bring your kids entering K - leaving 6th grade to SonQuest Rainforest VBS at First Baptist - Booneville. Adventurers will explore five parables told by Jesus that will make a difference in their lives every day.
On Day 1 - kids will GET IT! as they hear the truths of the Parable of the Sower.
On Day 2 - kids will GET FOUND! as they hear Jesus tell the Parable of the Lost Sheep.
On Day 3 - kids will GET GOD'S LOVE! as they listen to the Parable of the Good Samaritan and be inspired to share God's immeasurable love with others.
"Should I watch this movie or the other one?" "Should I eat a slice of watermelon for dessert or chocolate pie?" "Should I play on the computer or do my homework?"
Every day we make a lot of choices - some good and some BAD! Our choices follow us and may lead us down wrong paths.
This summer - every Wednesday from May 12th - August 11th - (or until school starts back), we will be studying about CHOICES in Kids' Club from 6:30 - 7:30 p.m. in the Game Room area. Kids' Club is for children ages K - 6th grade.
