Faithful Fridays~VBS

Faithful Fridays is a day where christians can share there faith, a song, a bible verse, a bible study that you are working through or anything that God has put on your heart to share. You can go to Joy's blog Doodle Bug to get the rules and picture.
Our church had it's VBS on the last week of July and it was a blast! Quite a few people and I helped decorate the church for about a month. It was a LOT of work but really fun! My mom and I got the 8-9 year old class. She was the leader and I was the helper.
The VBS this year was all about how we are all in a Battle for Truth. It is a war between two kingdoms, the good kingdom (Heaven) which is ruled by God and the evil kingdom (Hell) which is ruled by Satan. And everyday we learnt  that we have to put on the full Armor of God.
 Put on the whole Armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:11
Which is...
  • The belt of truth and the breastplate of righteousness
 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
Ephesians 6:14
  • The shoes of peace
and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Ephesians 6:15
  • The shield of faith
above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
Ephesians 6:16
  • The helmet of salvation and last of all the sword of the Spirit
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Ephesians 6:17


 There was a very clear salvation message and many kids went to talk with our pastor about salvation.
I think for the whole VBS week we had just under 100 kids. And most of them were either 8-9!

Me showing off the stage I helped make. You can't see it that well but it is up there. And if you are wondering about my hat it was crazy hat day so that was the best I could come up with.
 
I would love to show more pictures but they are not downloaded on the computer so I am very sorry about that!

  1. Sounds good! :) It's awesome to envision that armor of God when we're battling the devil's temptations.
