Imagine a child hearing about God’s love for the first time, kids worshiping in powerful ways, children praying for each other, adults and teens modeling Jesus’ love to children, and children serving each other.

This week at the Rescue Mission, our children are discovering that Jesus’ love is one-of-a-kind at Weird Animals VBS.
This program is teaching our kids that God filled the world with a lot of crazy creatures so when kids feel weird, different, or even lost in a crowd—nothing compares to the extraordinary love of Jesus.
Over 100 children are participating in this week’s vacation Bible school program by Church at the Mission. That’s over 100 kids who are growing in their relationship with God!
I have seen our volunteers and staff working hard to help our kids experience God’s word in surprising and unforgettable ways by reinforcing simple, but essential biblical truths that are easy to remember and applicable to real life. I can’t thank the Church at the Mission staff enough for spending this week with our kids at the Rescue Mission. The generosity of time designated to these kids is not just to entertain them for a week, but to invest in their future and relationship with God. Time and attention are some of the most generous gifts we can give to these impressionable and precious children, so I can’t thank you enough for this gift to the community at the Village of Hope.

Join me in praying that during this awesome VBS program God will touch children’s hearts and lives with His love and open their eyes to who He is and who He created them to be.
