This is a fun week at Community Lutheran! We are celebrating Vacation Bible School. If you never attended a VBS week, it is a time that welcomes all elementary age kids into the church. The kids have a chance to sing, hear a Bible lesson, do science experiments, and play games. The church has been transformed into an Alaskan wilderness, and we do our best to make everything extra special for each child.
Every year we welcome all kinds of people into the church. Many of these kids do not have any religious experience, and they each are dealing with something in their lives. However, we make sure that each child feels that they are welcomed and loved. Jesus wanted his disciples to experience grace everyday, and he is still encouraging us to share these blessings with the world. I love these opportunities to reach out to others. I love seeing kids light up with joy. I love seeing our volunteers smile and make everyday special. Sometimes little acts of love will make a big difference in a child's life.
Today I hope each and every one of you can experience God's Grace. I hope you can appreciate the love around you, and believe that God loves you!
Blessings!
Pastor Brian
