Today was our first day of VBS and it was fun! We met some new friends, sang some new songs and visited areas of the church that we have never seen. Ms. Kari Ann introduced the word of the day a faith. She told us that faith is believing even if you can’t see it (faith). It’s like a muscle, you have to practice it to make it strong.
We focused on the country Uganda which is in Africa. We made a musical instrument called a thumb piano. We read the story, A Good Trade. Which is the story of a boy who trades a flower for a pair of shoes. We then traced patterns on old blue jeans and cut them out. We are helping to make shoes. And during game time we learned and practiced playing a game called mancala.
For snack we tried dried mangos and coconut. Some friends enjoyed the mangos a lot more.
The children can’t wait to see what tomorrow has in store.
