Holiday Bible Club 2019
This year instead of having our Holiday Bible Club (VBS) during the summer, we decided to hold it during the school break at the end of October.
The three days following our pumpkin carving event, we started the club. We had kids from our church attend. We played games, had snacks, lessons, crafts, music and Bible verse memorisation. It was nice. This year Stephen did music, as usual, and I (Alisa) was in charge of games. I had never lead games before for a Holiday Bible Club, so this was a new experience for me. Some of the kids caught on well, others weren't so good. Still, I think all of the children had fun and it was nice to get to know them better.
We invited lots of children from the community, but again, no one seemed interested in bringing their children. There are always lots of options for children to do things outside of the church, and so I think people just choose the other options. Please pray for our community so people will begin to trust us and desire for their children to learn more about God. Still, even though children from the community didn't attend, I am so glad the kids from our church did attend. They all had lots of fun learning more about Jesus, and it was nice to hear stories of the kids singing the Bible memory verses at home. We are so thankful to have the opportunity to speak truth into the lives of our church kids as they live in a land where most people around them do not know the truth about Jesus.
