Night 2, Forest

Yes, we doubled in attendance tonight. We had 60 kids and the energy was really up so it was a fun night. Sparky made an appearance along with Judah the lion telling the story of Daniel.

Tomorrow will be decision night so our prayer is simple. Pray for hearts of all the children to be open to His voice.

Blessings,
John

Kickoff

We made it to the church yesterday (Sunday)a little after 3 to begin setting up for the opening night of VBS at Mt. Oliver Baptist Church outside of Forest, MS.

Everything went well. There were about 30 kids and the leadership said that typically on Mondays, at least in the past, they will double in attendance due to the other churches. Because they begin on Sunday night, the other churches, of course, do their own services.

Following our opening night, the church had what they call a Tailgate party. All the church joined in bringing their pickups and dropping the tailgates, offering various foods from pulled pork to cupcakes, chips, fruits, and home made ice-cream. There was even a contest for decorating your tailgate in the theme of the week. Lots of fun.

Keep up the prayers for strong attendance and I’ll let you know how Day 2 comes out!

Blessings,
John
