VBS 2024 Day 2 Recap

Well, we completed the second day of our VBS experience and had fun searching for THE ULTIMATE WAVE! Our campers have stayed focused on our mission and recognizing that GOD’S TRUTH NEVER CHANGES! Today we saw some awesome dress up costumes including mermaids, hula dancers, surfers, ocean animals, lifeguards, and more!

Our campers were very busy at all the rotations today! Did you see the ocean bottle your child made during craft? The kids loved their time at rec the last couple of days with extra FUN and giggles “pie-ing” their leaders with whipped cream. Our song and dance time was spent learning the song “Truth Comes From God!”

Through all the events, we continued learning to recognize the difference between what the world says is true and what God says is true. On day 1 we learned that truth comes from God. Today we learned that God’s plan is best! Today’s story came from Daniel 1. Daniel and his friends were taken captive by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. They chose to follow God’s plan with the foods they ate while being trained in the king’s palace. The friends chose to follow God’s plan and God gave them knowledge and understanding. The king found the four friends even wiser than the other men who had been working for him.

Thank you to all the kids that brought money today for the kids of Vision de Dios in Tijuana! We were quite busy collecting money and distributing bracelets this morning! We were so anxious to see who raised more money (boys or girls) and how many “school supplies” they collected! At the end of the day, we celebrated that the BOYS brought in enough money for TWO stacks of presents. But the GIRLS brought in even more money and contributed THREE present stacks! I bet we can get even more this week! Our friends in Mexico will be so grateful for our generous donations.

Please encourage your kids to do small chores/jobs around the house – or maybe you have a coin jar they can raid?!

If you or your family are interested in joining us for our VBS Mexico trip this Saturday to visit the kids of Vision de Dios and provide them with a taste of the fun that we’ve had this week, please go online and register HERE!!!

Lastly, make sure your kids are practicing their memory verses! Our memory verse for the week is:

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds. So that you may believe what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2

Tomorrow kids can wear their regular Breaker Rock Beach shirts. On THURSDAY we will have crazy, color spirit day. Kids can come dressed head to toe in their group color!

Until tomorrow,

Your Lifeguards, Lesley Hyatt & Jodie Horn
