July 2010

July has been a pretty busy month for our church.

First of all we celebrated Independance Day with a picnic and fireworks. Everyone had a great time. As soon as this event was through we started putting the finishing touches on Vacation Bible School.

VBS was held the week of July 12-16 at 6:30 pm each evening. Supper was provided each evening by a wonderful group of ladies from the church. Approximately 50 children and youth participated in VBS this year. This was one of the best Vacation Bible Schools that we have had! In fact it has made me start wanting to plan next year's VBS. Am I crazy? YES!!!

As soon as VBS was over, David and I went on vacation. We spent a week in Florida seeing Disney World. We were so tired when we return but we had a Blast. It was so nice to be able to share such a wonderful experience with such a great husband and friend.

When we returned from vacation, eleven of our children and youth left for Camp Lavida. They will return on Friday, July 30th with all kinds of wonderful experiences to tell us about.

I just want to say a BIG thankyou to everyone who has contributed to all of these events. From grilling hamburgers, to fixing VBS meals, to transporting the children and youth to camp. So much as happened over the past four weeks and I praise God that He made it all possible.

Let us continue to travel the path that God has set before our church. May be think BIG instead of small so that we can spread the gospel of Christ through out our community.

Please continue to pray for Cartersville Baptist church as we look foward to the coming months and what God has in store for us.
