It's that week again. The crazy, chaotic and wonderful week of Vacation Bible School. Or, as I call it, a Very Busy Steve. This week follows the same basic scenario. Get up for work. Pack lunch. Daily Devotional. Go to work. Leave work at 5 pm and get home at 5:10 (I work 2 miles from home) Grab something to eat. Leave at 5:30. Experience VBS from 6:00 to 8:30. Get home by 9:00. Cram in everything to do before 11 pm. Collapse in bed. Rinse and Repeat through Friday night.
Don't get me wrong, I truly enjoy it. This year, my stepson is helping out. He decided he wanted to volunteer over the weekend. He is working in the Drama room. I am a group leader Team 12...the oldest kids who can attend VBS. This has been my 4th year to volunteer and I plan my time around it to avoid vacation time, or other commitments.
If you get a chance and can volunteer your time at a local VBS, I
encourage it. We have young teens to retired people coming out to spend
time with over 100 kids, We want to give them hope, sing songs, and
share God with them (and some of their parents).
My plan is to work on more posts this week, if I can stay awake long enough. Thank you for your comments and support. Glad you are reading and enjoying the posts. Have a good week everyone.
Steve, I remember the first year you volunteered - so nervous to get up and dance with the kids. Now look at you. Too many conflicts in my week this year to allow me to help out. It is a special week for the kids and adults.
ReplyDeleteReally? I don't think Steve Schappell was ever nervous to get up and dance!
