Babylon VBS Update – July 10 -14

Registration for VBS this summer is now closed. We are looking forward to the week with about 115 kids from our church and the community! Thank you to all those who have volunteered to help make this week possible. 

Prayer Support

We invite you to stand with us in praying for our week of VBS, our children and volunteers. Covering this week in prayer is one of the most important tasks we can do; we know that prayer holds so much power.

Please pray for the following, and anything else that Holy Spirit presses on your heart

– That we would be drawn closer to the One True God, to His Heart, and understand His deep and sacrificial love for us by sending His Son Jesus

– That the Lord would stir, in each of our hearts, the joy that comes from walking with Him each and every day.

– That the curriculum, conversations and activities would be in line with God’s Will

– For safety

– For good weather so we can continue with our outdoor set up and events

“Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go throw yourself into the sea’ and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer”

Matthew 21: 21-22

We have started scheduling greeters for Sunday morning worship time, but it is not too late to add your name. As a greeter (individual, couple, or family) you would stand at the top of the stairs outside the parent’s room and greet people as they arrive Sunday morning. We would encourage you to be here by 9:30 or shortly after when you serve in this role. Would you or your family be willing to serve as a greeter and be scheduled in for a few Sunday mornings through the year? Contact Lisa Suderman, our office administrator, if you are willing to help with this ministry.

Coffee Time Hosts – If you would like to add your name to the list of coffee volunteers, please contact Lisa in the office. The schedule will be updated before September and we would welcome more volunteers. A coffee host prepares the coffee and cleans up after. Thanks so much.  

Beyond Our Church Community

The Hidden Acres Mennonite Camp Staff and Board of Directors want to thank everyone who came out and made our 56th Annual Chicken BBQ and 15th Annual Pie Auction fundraiser a success!

This year, 67 pies sold for a total of $7280! Thank you!

We are also grateful for everyone who helped to make the event happen. Thank you to the 65 volunteers who came to help set up, serve, BBQ the chicken, clean up and more. Thank you to those who made and donated pies. And, thank you to the Chicken BBQ Committee for helping to pull all the details together and organize another great event for camp. Mark your calendars for next year’s BBQ happening on Tuesday, June 11, 2024.

– For good weather so we can continue with our outdoor set up and events

“Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go throw yourself into the sea’ and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer”

Matthew 21: 21-22

Please let us know by calling, texting or emailing us,  if you feel called to intercede for VBS in this way. We would love to share with all those involved in VBS, the network of support that is covering this week in prayer.

Ashley and Naomi

Also, YOU ARE INVITED to join us for our Celebration Times in the church Sanctuary – each day from 9:00-9:20am, and 11:15-11:30am (July 10-14th).  Here you can hear the bible story, join in our songs as we worship God, and watch as the kids engage in their memory verse and bible point for each day. We loved having members from the congregation and our families join us last year during these times!
