Update from 1st presbyterian church Lewistown MT
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Recap

by Chris Ball | June 10, 2008 9:39 PM

The past few days have been pretty amazing! Sunday: We went to our host church and led children's bible study, did worship, and heard a message from Don,... later in the day we were able to get out to the houses around the church and invite people to VBS the follow day. Later that evening we heard a message from Pastor Henry Brown ( the pastor of our host church) then came back to the hotel and retired for the evening. Monday: THE WORK BEGINS!!!! Today we started working on painting the inside of the church. Much progess was made. Afterwards we went to the local elementary school to invite the students to VBS, which was occuring later in the day. During our school visit some of our team members went to tour the local hospital, all agreed it was an eye opening experience. At 4 VBS BEGINS!!! I don't think any of us could have imagined the amount of kids of that were to show up, but there was approximately 110 kids there! Whoa!! yea it was a madhouse, everyone had a blast and Pastor Brown was blown away by the turn out!. Tuesday: We arrived back at the church bright and early to continue painting. We worked very hard and got the walls and ceiling painted downstairs, and did some painting upstairs. Everyone was excited to see the transformation that occured in the room from what it was. We still have some trimwork to do but we should get it knocked out thursday. ANOTHER GREAT DAY OF VBS!!! much to everyone's amazement more than 160 kids showed up today, and it was awesome how smooth everything went today! ... and some of the kids parents actually came out, which was awesome to see. Coming up: tomorrow we are going to mayan ruins in the morning to experience some Belizan culture... everyone is very excited! ... after that we have another day of VBS ... we are hoping and praying that more parents will come out. in the next few days ... so please lift that up ...
