VBS…
To you… the avid and devoted reader of this humble blog, VBS probably means Vacation Bible School. Which is a thing that happens during school holidays mainly in North America, for those of you like me living 250 cipro mg on other land masses around the world.

Churches pay more to present elaborate programs in summer
Vacation Bible schools have been a summer fixture at many Christian churches for more than a century. Sometime between Memorial and Labor Day, churches set aside a few hours a day, usually for a week, for crafts, games and lessons about the Bible. Most are free.
Churches offer the programs to provide a fun way for children to connect with their Christian faith. Many churches see the programs as a key evangelical opportunity, one to which non-church-member children come for the fun, then bring their parents to church to stay. Read On.
Do any readers do VBS, if you are from a non-US church?
Hey! I’m probably not as far away from America as to make this interesting – but I’m Canadian, and both attended VBS as a child and help to lead our program now. Are you starting a VBS program? I wasn’t aware they were “North American”.
Jessica… I am just trying to figure that out. I don’t know of any churches in Australia that do VBS, but I am sure there are some, and am wondering if other countries do it…
