Our church's Bible School ran from June 13-15 this year. Since we had a lot of young kids (most were 6 and under), we decided to use a theme that would appeal to the younger set, Veggie Tales! Whether it was the theme, better advertising, or divine intervention, we ended up with over 50 kids...which for our little church was really saying something! T-shirts sporting the words "God Made Me Special," bright paper flowers, and a paper mac-hie veggie garden (dedicated to our dear friend Mrs. Hitchcock, an original Sunday School/VBS teacher who passed away this spring), all added to the fun. We also enjoyed Veggie Tales music and some meaningful stories that left Emma talking and singing for days afterwards. It's a bittersweet feeling to see that she's no longer the youngest (not even close!), but she seems to get more out of the experience every year!
