Big turnout for week of fun, faith at Mountain View VBS
More than 110 young people had a wonderful week of fun and faithfulness at vacation Bible school Aug. 1 through 5 at Mountain View Lutheran Church of Edgewood.
Another 70 adults and youth helped out as teachers, leaders and assistants, making it a two-to-one ratio of volunteers to children, according to Mountain View Administrative Assistant Troy Goins.
About $1,600 was raised from offerings during the "Big Jungle Adventure" vacation Bible School, and it went to the ELCA fund for helping in the aftermath of severe storms.
Here are a couple of photos from Mountain View. The first is Day 1, where everyone is getting the hand movements down with the songs. The other is a performance. More photos of this fantastic week are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/mtviewlutheran/collections/72157627334793940/.
Thanks Troy.
