Things To Do This Summer in Beaverton . . . Attend Vacation Bible School

When I was a young girl I went to Valley Lutheran Church in Sun Valley, CA and loved Vacation Bible School.  My Mother was a Sunday School Teacher and also taught Vacation Bible School.

In 1966, my Mother was called to be a teacher at Vacation Bible School in South Central Los Angeles.  My Father thought she was crazy, but she said they needed a teacher and so my sister and I went to Vacation Bible School at Immanual Lutheran Church off of Florence, just a few blocks from Normandie.  I was 8.

I had a great time, and can remember making friends with Beverly that summer.  So many, many years ago . . . but I still remember.  

When my son was about that same age, he went to Vacation Bible School too, and enjoyed it.

The watered down Hawaiian Punch was delicious, as were the stale Hydrox cookies we had for snack.  One of my fond memories.

Now that summer is almost here, why not think about Vacation Bible School?

Carla,  I think Bible School is an important element in every child's life.  I remember going to Sunday School in a bus every Sunday. Apparently, and I have no memory of this, I used to tell stories so compelling that the teacher would call my parents and ask if it were true. (LOL)  Stories like we were moving to a ranch that had horses, bunnies and chickens. I seriously believe I learned to dream build at a very young age.  It was what I wanted and in many respects, still do.

Carla, Used to go as a kid, and we had fun with it.  At our current church the kids put together a fundraising goal to support missions.  Amazing how much money these kids can raise over the course of a week.  I'm betting there's not a loose coin left in the house by the time they're done!
