Today I write with tons of excitement because tomorrow we leave! There's lots of packing and organizing to do today but its nothing we can't handle.
My mom thought it would be a good idea if we posted a better description of the VBS curriculum so here it goes:)
This VBS is entitled "Kingdom of the Son: A Prayer Safari." As the title might imply, the emphasis is on prayer and the important role it plays in our relationship with Christ. It focuses on the importance of talking to God daily. The Lord's Prayer is used in many of the songs and lessons. Jennie and I are pretty excited about teaching the music to the kids. It is fun and full of many opportunities to share concepts in a simple but truthful way. The music has a ton of African influence so it is full of driving rhythms. It will be very fun for the kids and give them opportunities to move and make beautiful music. (which is so very important to us future music teachers.)
There is so much joy encompassed in teaching kids music with great truth in it. Again, please pray that we will be an encouragement to those around us and that we would be also be encouraged. Hopefully the next time you hear from us we will be on the other side of the pond!!!!!
Lots of Love,
Debbie (and Jennie)
