Vacation Bible School - July 13- 17
Have you marked your calendar yet? St. John’s Vacation Bible School will be held July 13-17, 6-8 pm. A light meal will served each night.
Children will study the parables, the Great Pearl, the Sower, the Leaven and the Mustard Seed. The adults will also study the parables, but via a different and unique viewpoint — through the eyes of Dr. Seuss. The parables will be examined through five Dr. Seuss books. Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel) books are known for their blend of whimsy, zany humor, catchy verse, and outlandish illustrations. Dr. Seuss was a man who could stretch out a set of simple words to delight and entertain, but at the same time, his words hold a deeper meaning on important issues. The Bible study will explore the spirituality of the stories and in doing so will reveal Dr. Seuss to be a first class Christian thinker.
The five featured books are: The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, Bartholomew and the Oobleck, I Had Trouble in Getting to Solla Sollew and Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?
As an added bonus, there will be an abundance of interesting crafts for all ages. Make your plans to come.
