Day 5 SonRise National Park VBS

The theme for the final day of SonRise National Park VBS was True Hope. The bible story was about Paul and Silas singing and praising God in prison. In spite of their circumstances, their true hope was in Jesus.


We made dirt buddies in crafts to remind us that we should stick together and help each other. The animal for the day was the caribou. Caribou were created to travel in herds. God created us to travel together as well. Sometimes we forget that Jesus is always with us, especially when we're hurt or sad. So God has given us friends in our churches to help us remember that Jesus loves us, He is always with us and always helps us.

 We all enjoyed "Snowballs" (ice cream) topped with chocolate & sprinkles during snack time. The snack ladies did a great job of helping us keep up our energy. We had some yummy snacks at SonRise National Park this week.

Each family went home with a CD of all the VBS songs. If you pass a car with children in the back seat  singing, waving their arms, clapping their hands, and wiggling in their seats, it's likely they're listening to "Cool, Cool Summer" or "God Will Meet All Your Needs".


This year's VBS offering will support area food pantries. Throughout the week, we were encouraged to fill a tent with items that cannot be purchased at the food bank, such as laundry detergent, paper towels and toothpaste. Monetary donations were also accepted.
