“I love it here!”

While many of the songs we sing at SuperVBS are not new to Curwensville Alliance — Jesus, Messiah, Beautiful One, Lord I Lift Your Name on High, My All in All — they are new to many of the children present.

Last evening, at VBS, Linda spoke to me and said, “Pastor Steve, I have to tell you this story.”

She went on to speak about a little girl in her tribe of 17 kids who kept asking, “When are we going to sing? I want to go up and sing!” Linda told her it was coming soon. Finally, when they went up to sing, as the music was being queued, the little girl looked up at Linda and said with a sort of sigh in her voice, “I love it here.”

For some kids, VBS can be life-changing immediately. I read on Diane’s facebook today that she came to know Christ at a VBS. On the other hand, sometimes VBS is doing the work of giving children a pleasant experience so that when they are seeking something more in life, they come back to that memory.

In both cases, it’s a wonderful thing to see children loving the music as they worship God. Please pray for these kids — that through the work of this ministry, they would find Jesus.

Heard at Council…

“My claim to fame is that I got in trouble with Ravi Zacharias. Yeah… we were at the Mormon Tabernacle and Ravi spoke to them on the uniqueness of Jesus. Think about that: Ravi proclaimed the uniqueness of Jesus to 6,000 Mormons.

“A lot of people didn’t like that. Yeah. That’s why I call him ‘Ole Wishy-washy Ravi'”
