The theme this year was “Scuba: Diving into Friendship with God,” where the kids were taken on an undersea adventure to experience the ever-flowing, never-ending love of God.
VBS Director Christa Robshaw reported that 77 kids in grades preK-5th participated in this year’s Vacation Bible School. There were 44 volunteers from First Lutheran, Prophetstown United Methodist, and the River Church to help make it an unforgettable experience for all.
“We had a wonderful week learning about God’s love through Bible stories, music, science experiments, games, and snacks,” said Robshaw. She thanked all the volunteer leaders, attending kids, and their families for sharing in the joyful summertime experience.
The program was held from 5:30-8 p.m. each night, with a light meal served up before the fun started. On the last night of VBS on Thursday, August 1, the kids got onstage to sing songs for their families and the community. They were excited to share what they had learned at VBS!
Special thanks goes to Thicksten’s Popcorn and Gibson’s Conoco of Lyndon for donating food, and to Farmers National Bank and the Moore Foundation for their monetary donations for food as well. The City of Prophetstown also closed off the road in front of the church so the kids could safely enjoy VBS.
