Turned Around was this year’s DVBS theme. It mainly revolved around five amazing bible stories – highlighting God’s love, grace, and mercy towards the lives of Zacchaeus, Mephibosheth, Noah and his family, Paul and the Ethiopian Treasurer.
About 150 kids (ages 4-13) attended the 5-day vacation bible school. Each child enjoyed the fun games, exciting activities, praise and worship, word-up recitations, verse memorization and above all, the bible stories that pointed out the sin of men and need for the one and only Savior – Jesus Christ. These children were taught important biblical truths in order for them to become good followers of God at home, in school, and in church.
Sectors one, two, three, four and five helped in preparing for the food of the kids for four days. The members of each sector willingly gave their time and effort to come up with nutritious and appetizing meals. Because of this, the children truly appreciated the food that was prepared for them.
On the last day, 131 kids were able to attend the graduation ceremony. All of them received awards for the purpose of strengthening the good traits that they already have in them. The highlight of the last day of DVBS 2019 was the Word of God and Rev. Pastor Jeffrey Jo delivered the message of the Good News of Jesus Christ. The kids genuinely enjoyed the graduation day and as their way of conveying their thanksgiving to the Lord and to their teachers, two students read their letters of gratitude in front of everyone.
Indeed, the Lord is truly faithful. He used our Church brethren to help us financially and physically in making this event a successful one. God has sustained DVBS 2019 and showed His love and grace towards the lives of the children, teachers and to everyone who participated in this special event. Truly, the Lord wants these little children to come to Him and it was a great blessing to be used by God to lead these kids to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Soli Deo Gloria!
