During the summer time my church doesn't do vacation bible school any more for the kids. We have taken it to the communities around our town. We go into different communities and minister to kids as well as thier parents. We do bible studies, games, skits and many other activites. This summer was really great and it's a blessing to bless alot of these kids, because some of them never get to really leave their community unless it's church or school and it's a blessing to bless them. Some of these kids also attend our church on wednesday nights. The ones that comes on Wednesdays on a regular , we took them different places out of our county. This was my first summer really getting involved in it all and I loved it. Here is some of the fun below.

I also attended events with the preschoolers and it was very fun to hangout with them because the little ones loves to explore more and enjoy themselves no matter what. I attended only two events with them. The Coca Cola Space Science Center. This was a very intresting place for science lovers. I went to the airport with them as well in Thomaston Georgia. It was great looking and learning about the airplanes. The kids really enjoyed sitting in the pilot seat of one the planes that our tour guide build himself. They got to see sky divers and that really excited them, I was so taking by the skydivers I have decided on my 30rd birthday to do it, and yes I am praying about it...lol. Here are some pictures of the fun we had.
