It takes imagination, creativity, and effort to transform this building into an interstellar space odyssey!
We give thanks to Allison Ollanketo for volunteering her artistic skills and vision that have helped inspire us to go beyond in faith, boldness, and kindness!

What We Were Up to Today
BEAMING BIBLE STORIES
Today we heard an incredible story Jesus told (a parable) commonly called
"Kindness" has become a bit of a buzz word in our culture, and it is often misinterpreted as merely being nice or having good manners. In our Bible story, we explored and observed the example the Good Samaritan provides of true kindness in the form of caring action for others across cultural boundaries. His compassionate and sacrificial loving care show us that , because of our faith, we can show God's love and kindness through our actions... at VBS, and beyond!
PLANET PRESCHOOL
We had a great time in our two preschool classes today!
The preschoolers learned the story of The Good Samaritan and our word for today was kindness.
We sang a couple songs about showing how to be a good neighbor.
We learned the rest of our dance moves in music today for the theme song and had “sprinkle-tastic”Rice Krispie treats.
We enjoyed playground time and crafting a robot to round out our day!
It was a taste of home as the voyagers enjoyed Rice Krispie Treats
with “cosmic” sprinkles.
