The Friday schedule was modified to include a closing program. Approximately 50 parents and other guests attended to see what the children had learned. The mission project for the week was Operation Christmas Child.
Total attendance of students for the week was 122 children plus parents. A number of parents remained on sight each night and we had approximately 30 volunteers help out throughout the week. The men’s group of FBC provided security each night since we were at a public facility.
As a final activity for VBS 2022, during worship on Sunday, July 17 the children presented a short program to share with the congregation what they had learned and all the fun they had at VBS. Thank you for your financial support of this program!
