Vacation Bible School – Wilderness Escape 2014 – Day 3

Today is day 3 of VBS and it’s raining!

She was happy to get back to VBS and is looking forward to tomorrow when she gets to go on the field trip.

The Bible point for today…

Chase the cheetah says: ” God gives us strength, so… trust God!”

Today they…

  • heard the Bible story about Israel defeating the Amalekites (Exodus 17:8-16)
  • played games in the gym (since it was raining outside). Place “manna” (cotton ball) on your head and try to shot it off your teammates head with a water gun. Isabel didn’t like this game. She said, “Not everyone likes to get wet!”
  • made a weaving craft (didn’t bring it home today).
  • Bible verse for today, “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13
  • revealed more of the “mystery” photo. Isabel says she figured it out today, it’s Moses.
  • watched a skit preformed live by Pastor S. and his “helpers” and more of the short movie series clip.

Bug In A Jar

Last night Gino and I were outside enjoying a beautiful evening in the backyard when I spotted this pair of frogs.

Before I ran to get the camera this little frog had both front feet on the glass staring at the moth!
What was it thinking?!?!

Poor little frog, dinner is right there and there is no way to get it or is there…

While I’m watching the other frog on the other side, this one climbs up and positions itself.

As I’m watching the frogs and the moth, other bugs outside the glass are drawn to the light. I’m thinking, these frogs are SMART, they don’t have to sit and wait hoping a buy will fly by! They just have to wait for them to be drawn toward the light!
