Update on VBS & the mountaineer crew

The VBS at Asbury UMC was cancelled, so the mountaineer crew spent another morning at the nursing home. The kids began to feel comfortable much more quickly today. They heard some great stories, played lots of games and even did some word searches. This afternoon we're joining the river riders at a boys & girls club. It's a totally different pace and we're having tons of fun here too. God is good. Thank for your continued prayer!

Morning devotions

We are starting a new day! God was so good yesterday. Last night we learned more about the community and experienced a music experience put on by the church we are staying at. One of our students led someone to Christ yesterday.!! We are continuing with different activities today in the community.

Dinner set up crew


Serving at Golden Living Nursing Home

Hello from Charleston! So far our crew has learned that plans can change, and our kids are being so flexible. This morning we learned all about the VBS we'll be helping run throughout the week. This afternoon they're enjoying lunch and later some bingo at a local nursing home. Pray that lots of kids show up for the Asbury VBS tomorrow through Thursday! We continue to be stretched and I love watching God work through those experiences.
