Today several members of our team held a Vacation Bible School for the local children. Kathy Yanchick did most of the planning/preparation for it. I don't know just how many attended, but the 20-passenger van looked like it had twice that many kids in it! The lesson was about Noah & the ark. We surprised the kids by spraying them with water when the "water burst forth" to initiate the flood. They seemed to enjoy it! Joseph & Anna Dickman were the hands behind the puppet scenes and John was "God" during the reading.
The first three pictures are of our team presenting the Bible School lesson. The next two are of a classroom before the paint projects began. As you can see, the walls were scraped up and dirty from the desks rubbing against them. The chalkboards were also in bad condition. Pam Kintz worked today painting black trim around all of the chalkboards. Many others helped paint the lower half of the walls in each of the upstairs classrooms. Susan Baranek is shown in the last as she begins the project of painting the courtyard walls around the school/church. What an improvement! "After" pictures will be posted as the projects are finished.
