VBS- Day 2

We had a great second day of VBS.  We had 53 kids, which means there were several new faces.  Today's lesson centered around Matthew 14:22-33, where Jesus walks on the water, and Peter attempts to walk on the water as well.  The overall theme was that Jesus protects us, even when our faith is not as it should be. 

The memory verse was Isaiah 41:13; "For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, 'Fear not, I am the one who helps you.'" 

Every day the snack in some way ties into the lesson, but I thought today's was especially cool.  Blue Jello in a cup to mimic the ocean, with Cool Whip as the waves, a peach as the boat, and a piece of Fruit Rollup as the sail.  How neat is that?!?!

I leave you with a final photo of the extremely creative ladies in charge of the crafts that the kids do each day.  You guys are awesome!

Of course, all of the photos from today, and the rest of the week will be added to the photostream at the bottom of the blog, which you can then follow to the church's flickr page to view all of our photos from VBS and many other activies.  If you have a child, or know of a child that would be interested in coming to VBS, we hope to see you see this week!
