CHILDREN'S DIRECTOR - Carol Scheele
Carol and her husband, Danny, have two daughters and a son - Nicole, Britney and
Colin.
DIRECTOR'S REPORT- Vacation Bible School
Vacation Bible School got off to a great start! We had an average of 50 kids (and about that many
adults) each night. The kids came because it's a fun adventure. The adults are who I want to praise!
Thank you for all the support for your kids and the LORD! Friday was Family Night of VBS and our closing
ceremony was from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. We had a program with the kids - music - food - and an opportunity
for the family to go through each day of VBS together. A small donation was appreciated from each
family for the cost of dinner (pizza, dessert & drinks).
