We had a first this summer. Our kids have never been to Vacation Bible School--odd, I know. Our church doesn't do one, and honestly I never thought about checking into other churches. But this year I heard a friend of ours was taking her kids, so I thought why not let the kids go and see what they can learn. I was a little concerned about how they'd do in a new place with mostly new people (because they are divided up my age & gender), but they absolutely loved it. They came home the first night talking non-stop about each thing they did. The theme this year was firefighters, and they had an offering of pennies each night to see if the boys or girls could bring the most in. Well, after the first night, I was forced to go to the bank and get rolls of pennies for them to give. It's fun to see them get excited about it all. I went each night for the closing program, and I have never heard that many kids screaming so loud (all 400ish of them). It was quite a site, and I'm so thankful they had the opportunity to go. We're actually are already talking about next year.
