V.B.What?

I just found out that VBS stands for Vacation Bible School. I am currenty throwing up my lunch. #kidmin

Unfortunately I had to be the one to break it to my esteemed colleague Funny Man Dan… he had no idea.

I think if I sat down with a group of people committed to thinking up the worst possible name for an event during summer holidays… well… I know for a fact it would include the word school!

Sorry Dan.

    I imagine that’s why so many people call it VBS now rather than Vacation Bible School. It’s kind of like when Kentucky Fried Chicken became KFC. The chicken was still fried, but somehow everyone felt better because they didn’t have to say so in the name. Now, if your VBS feels like school, that is a much bigger problem!

    I have to admit, I only recently just found out that’s what it stood for too! I’d never even heard of VBS until a few months ago! Maybe it’s not very common in Australia?

    Where I’m at in Indiana it is huge. I’ve never been a real big fan, but for whatever reason our church reaches a lot of students through it. I am changing the S to X for next year’s theme. I don’t like the school part either.
