Family Vacations For At Risk Children

The focus of my church's Vacation Bible School's mission project is Camp Ray Bird - a camp for Indiana / Michigan area 'at risk' children.

Children go for what probably is their only 'vacation.' They get to 'vacation' from.....the inner city, hunger, crime, abuse, danger, drugs, guns, death, while learning about the love of Jesus and having a great time.

The favorite camper quote from the summer is, "Why are all the people so nice at Camp Ray Bird?"

Join in on the mission project and help send send some children on a great family vacation.

We Can't Afford A Family Vacation! Vacation Bible School

If you are unable to fly off on a family vacation, try taking one from home.

A fun thing for the children to do is attend a Vacation Bible School.

I am on staff for our Vacation Bible School - it starts this Saturday, July 16th.

That means this week is full of the last minute preparations!

I will try to keep posting .... that is if I have time!!!! I just found out we are short about 60 outifits - just easy throws with simple cutting and edging - but still!!!! PANIC!!!

Anyone near Elk Grove Baptist Church who wants to come help?!?!?
