Vacation Bible School 2009 Mission Projects

A general offering was taken by VBS, and crafts made by different age groups were used as charitable donations:

• Our mission projects this year began in our craft classes during the week as the children worked on projects that will be donated to others.  Many of those projects can be seen on VBS 2009 Photo Page.
   

• The 4th -5th graders created a rock garden filled with lovely hand painted planters and benches for the residents of The Wyatt House, to enjoy.
   

• The Preschoolers, Kindergarteners, & 1st - 3rd graders made and decorated items to be shared with several people in our community: residents at Covenant Woods, Cool Spring shut-ins, Hanover Safe Place and the homeless in D.C. and Richmond. Travel-sized items were donated for the hygiene kits.
   

• Monetary donations collected during the week from children attending will be used to purchase additional items to be placed in the hygiene bags and the remainder will be donated to our Senior High mission trip to Arizona in July 2009.  We are very excited about this opportunity to reach out to others in our community and in other parts of the United States .
   

• In addition, the Chick-fil-A on Bell Creek Rd. in Mechanicsville will sponsored a Spirit Night on Wednesday, June 24th from 5:30 - 8:00 with 10% of the proceeds going toward the Arizona Mission Trip.
