Super University

 Our church's vacation Bible school (VBS) theme this year was Super University, teaching kids how they are each a superhero in training and that God wants to use them to spread the Good News of His love and salvation.
 Each day there were silly competitions like the one in the picture above where contestants had to stuff as many balloons into oversized clothes as they could to try to look like they had big muscles.
 There was a BBQ and closing ceremony (graduation from Super University) on Friday night so here are some pictures of the kids singing the songs that they had learned.
 At VBS at our church, Friday is always a wet day and they get this big water slide (Sky is going down).  Brad and Lila did not venture onto this thing but Sky really enjoyed it.
 There was even an appearance from Batman!  Brad is really into superheroes right now so this theme was really fun for him.
 I led an elementary team of about 16 students in grades 1-5.  They were a great group of kids and we enjoyed our time together.  Each kid got to make a cape and we learned about a different missionary each day.  Super University was super fun!

Neat theme! Julia did 2 VBS programs this year...a wild west theme and Discipliship.By the way, I saw Mr. Monroe at the second VBS, which was at Waterbury Christian Fellowship. (Amy and Mike attend there) I talked to him and thanked him for being our Sunday school teacher. He was soooo excited and kept introducing me to everyone. lol I also mentioned that you are doing great and about your beautiful family and your trip to Isreal. He wanted me to pass along a warm hello to you! He was encouraged that we are walking with the Lord. :o) We enjoyed that church very much. Everyone was super friendly, and they sang songs from our VBS days at Cheshire Bible Chapel! (ex...Whos the King of the Jungle) Remember our families building/painting the puppet stage one year?! Great times. Im glad our kids will know the joy of VBS also.
