VBS day 2

Posted in 2009 June/Jul Trip, Care and Repair, VBS at 12:21 am by sduke1222

Yesterday (Tuesday) was a great day for the VBS team. The kids were excited that we had returned and we knew many of their names which made the kids really happy. The theme for the day was EAster so a Bible story, anĀ  Easter Egg hunt and a craft were the plans for the day. I was inside for storytime most of the day, but from what I hear from the recreation folks, the Easter egg hunt was the fastest and most fun part of the day!

We did eat lunch finally at the Pink Flamingo and those of us new to the country enjoyed our dumplings very much!

The afternoon at the Intake Center saw fewer kids as several of the kids were at the dentist, but we still had a lively group who were eager to sing and play with us.

Several of us also had a nice visit with the Director of the Intake Center – but I will let everyone share their own experiences of that particular event!

The Care and Repair team has been off to a somewhat slow start – but we have a great group of guys who have done a great job working together to get the materials for a new pavilion for the children. My husbad Jamey throuroughly enjoyed his trip to the Ukrainian Home Depot! (not really called Home Depot). I will post more tonight – we are rushing out the door this morning to attend a local orthodox church service.
