Goin' Green

 

FBC Norristown hosted over 40 kids for a week of Vacation Bible School under the theme of “Breaker Rock Beach”. They offered music, games, crafts, snacks, Bible lessons and tons of fun for kids entering Kindergarten through 6th grade. Pastor C.G. Coats set a goal for their mission project and offered to let them dye his hair green if they met the goal. See the results!

Picnic Time

 

A  great crowd from Jefferson Baptist Church gathered for its annual picnic following its Sunday worship service. Chicken was provided and, as Baptists are, amazing cooks and bakers prepared so many wonderful foods to choose from. There were about 65ish in attendance with games and a playground available for all ages.

Day Camp Fun

 

GraceCrossing Community Church wraps up a week-long free day camp offered to the community thanks to ABCOPAD grant funding! Starting at 7:30 am and running until 5pm on Monday through Friday, this camp offered Bible lessons, arts and crafts, games, interactive lessons by special guest artists, and life-skills training (not to mention breakfast, lunch and snacks!) This is the second year we have offered this to the community free of charge and registration filled up fast with repeat attendees from last year. Few of these students attend church anywhere else so this was their first exposure to the Gospel! Kudos to our volunteers who took timely off work to make this happen!
