Afternoon/Evening 7/21/10


            “You’re out! No it was on the line!!”  That’s what we kept hearing as kids played their favorite game called “4 Square.”  VBS (Vacation Bible School) was a really great experience.  One of my favorite parts of VBS was when we were doing the motions in a song and just watching every kid do every motion.  The kids really loved the songs and the motions.  When we were with the kids it was really eye opening to see how much they loved this camp.  This is probably the highlight of their summer.  One girl almost started to cry because she didn’t want to leave.  She made us promise to her that we were going to be back here tomorrow.  After VBS we got prepared for the Community Meal.  Which is a meal the church serves to the community every Wednesday night.  We served them hamburgers and hot dogs.  A lot of people showed up.  There were about 150-200 people!!!!  There was so many people we actually ran out of hamburgers.  It was a really great time.  After we got done with all of the cooking, serving, and cleaning up.  We played a game called, “Sardines.”  Which is when you hide with a partner somewhere in the church and people try to come and find you.  Once they find you they hide with you and you just keep going on and on until everybody has found you.   So I was partnered with Adam Harvey and we hid in a nursery on the third floor of the building.  There was a little house in the nursery and Adam hid in it.  It took a pretty long while before everybody found us.  Now I didn’t know that Adam was claustrophobic.  So I hadn’t noticed but Adam got so sweaty, tired and claustrophobic he kicked the roof and the side of the house off so he could get out.  That caused so much noise that everybody found us right away.  If you ever hide with someone don’t hide with Adam.  It was a really great first day and I’m so happy I came.  Keep praying for the high school people and Leaders because they look really tired and have worked really hard.
