PBC's VBS Experience by Becky Foo

Lifeway VBS preparation months to the VBS days.. at Piasau Baptist Church were the first ever ‘challenging’ experience for all of us the Piasau Baptist Church Sunday School Teachers especially more so to the organizing committees whom are taking up the Bible Track Study (imagine learning and communicating via emails, attachments, telecon etc..) with the children during the three days VBS as well as organizing the rests of the logistics. All I can say is Praise The Lord for willing hearts though we know not what to expect! The Lord has indeed strengthen us all through until the completion of the wonderful event!

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me…” Philippians 4:13

Wonderful people that the Lord has brought to us indeed.. though everyone from the other island (peninsular) is a stranger to us.. and amazingly we knew them as cheerful, vibrant and zealous for the Lord’s work in the children ministry via emails communication. When they actually arrived the city of Hornbill, we sort of connected to each other already.. ! amazing… truly amazing..

Praise God as well for the children participating. Out of 49 children we have half of the children received the Lord, a combination of unchurched children (Christians) and non-christians background. Through the VBS camp Lifeway vibrant materials, we were able to revive the excitement of our children to weekly Sunday school. And as of now, we have additional of 5 new faces to our church though there are still lots of follow-up prayer to the non-christian children who would love to come but not encouraged by their parents. Indeed, the Lord’s calling is that we need to pray for them and continue to follow-up though we do not see the fruits now.. at least seeds of Christ has been sown..

Glory be to the Lord! May His will be done and may we gain strength from Him daily.. ! Amen! Last but not least, every memories is great and we are glad to know that our brothers and sisters over in Peninsular and all of us here at Piasau Baptist Church are united in a body of Christ in serving our King together. Hallelujah!
