We have many reasons to praise God! He brought 167 campers through our doors during the week and approximately 100 of the children were from outside of Fellowship Church. The children heard the gospel message several times throughout the week and learned of God's great love for them. I pray that this message stays close to their hearts in the coming weeks and that their families and friends will also be impacted by the true meaning of Vacation Bible School.
I can't believe the months and months of planning are already over and that the week has come and gone. We had 100 volunteers who helped in many different ways to make this a successful week.
Fourteen children professed Jesus Christ as their Savior for the first time this week. We are so thankful that these children heard about what Jesus has to offer them and that they accepted the gift of forgiveness, grace, and eternal life in heaven. We also know that many, many more seeds were planted in the hearts of others.
During the week, the children brought in donations for Wildwood Ranch, a Christian camp for inner city children. They raised $1039, which is enough money to send 41 kids to camp for a week. The Detroit Free Press will be matching the donation; therefore, 82 children will be able to attend Wildwood Ranch!
We give all of the glory to God and praise him for a successful week.
