This week Toby and I have been reminded of the times we have either taught at Vacation Bible School, directed VBS, or attended VBS as a child. Most of the time we wouldn't have large amounts of children at VBS, but were excited to see many hearing the Word of God. I also know that many of you reading this blog have fond memories of past VBS weeks.
We have just spent almost two weeks at "VBS" with the CAL team. Before they came to Ghana the team spent many hours preparing lessons. The lessons were taught to more than 2,000 children that the team had the privilege to visit while here! What a testimony they will be able to share with others about the time they came to Ghana and the impact this has been on the team's lives.
Toby and I hope that in the past Vacation Bible Schools that children have learned about Jesus. We also hope that the efforts of Seed Ministry will have a large impact for Jesus. All the workers here, all the teams that come can see what an impact a smile, a touch or a hug can do for a child.
Through these interactions we have an open door to tell people about our love for Jesus and what He has done in our lives.
Do you know a child near your home, church or work that could use a smile, a hug or an invitation for a ride to your church to learn about Jesus? Give that child your time, give that child a ride and when that child grows up he/she can say, "I remember that time, they showed me love and I learned about Jesus!"
