Day 1: God Finds me when i have troubles

Call upon Me in the day of trouble;  I will deliver you. Psalm 50:15

Bible Skit lead by Ms Kathy

The Birth of Moses

Today we learned during our Bible Lesson Skit:
God’s people were slaves in Egypt. They wondered how long it would be before God would deliver them.

Baby Moses would grow up to lead God’s people out of slavery. God had a plan, even in the middle of their troubles!

Sometimes we may wonder if God has a plan for us. We wonder if He is keeping His promises. We become discouraged by troubles. It seems they don’t end.

 But God’s plan and timing are perfect. He is always doing what is best for us. Even when we doubt, His Word and promises are true.

We call on Him and trust Him. Just like God delivered baby Moses from the river, in His perfect time and in His perfect way, God will always deliver us and help us, His children!
Crafts lead by Ms Jane.

The Cross is the most profound and obvious physical thing that not only demonstrates God's love for us but His commitment to save us from sin, death and the power of the evil one.

The students were given a cross to create within the form as they wished. It is amazing to see their creativity and their talent in designing and then making their cross.

They worked upon their cross over the next few days. When finished it was be something they can look at and hold to remind them that Jesus not only hears their prayers, but He answers them in ways that build their faith and comforts them.
Games led by Ms Deb

The Crossing of the Red Sea

Our young Christians were formed into two teams.
One team would be the Israelites crossing the Red Sea and the other team would try and roll a ball across their path to hit their foot which would result in the team member having to leave the game.

The first time the team tried to get across no one made it and they switched sides. It is amazing how quickly the Israelites crossing the Red Sea discovered how to safely cross even as the other team discovered new ways to hit their feet with the rolling ball.
Openings and Closings were led by Ms Maureen

What an exciting first day of Vacation Bible School and at the closing Ms Maureen and Ms Deb made sure that the Bible Verse and the Theme for the day was reviewed and reinforced.
