VBS- Day 4 (albeit two weeks after it actually happened...)

So admittedly, I dropped the ball on getting the photos up from VBS Day 4, but I did want everyone to see what the kids did that day. 
There were 51 kids at VBS on the final day, which gave us an average of close to 50 for each day.  As you know, we don't have 50 kids in our church, so you can tell that we had a lot of visitors!
The theme for Day 4 was "Forgiven By Jesus".
The memory verse was Psalm 86:5: "For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you."  There were actually a few stories that the kids heard today, but the central lesson was about how Jesus forgave Peter, even after Peter's denial of Him.  Below is a picture of the room that the MAP kids trasformed into a courtyard at night to set the scene for Peter's betrayal. 
I'll leave you with a few photos of the kids learning, snacking, making crafts, and playing games.  I will try to upload all the photos from VBS to the photostream at the bottom of the blog by the end of the week.  VBS turned out great this year, due to the outstanding work of Sonny Child's MAP team, as well as hours of preparation by some of our own members.  There is no doubt that many kids learned a great deal about who Christ is, and how much he loves them!!
