This Sunday at Church: Shepherding people who might be upset that your church has no VBS this year
In 2023, our church had a small sort of VBS for the first time (we made ukuleles and practiced some songs to play for the church.) This year, we do not have a VBS, though some of our teens helped lead some at other churches as evangelistic outreaches. So many other churches offer VBS that many families cycle through to essentially have summer daycare throughout June and July.
A few parents have wondered about a lack of VBS, but mostly they are okay with going to all the others. I am beginning to have my youth group do more with younger groups. (Most of the youth volunteer in some way in the church, including teaching Sunday School.) Perhaps we are approaching a time when the youth hold the VBS!
In any event, we need to pray for children to heat the gospel and how to shepherd the whole congregation, whether or not there is VBS.

For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Shepherding people who might be upset that your church has no VBS this year.
Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
Thanks
