about how many attended
and what do you think was
the highlight of your session?
In the arts and crafts de-
partment, which is so i'm
portant and expensive, what
craft did each group enjoy
most and also, what Bible
craft did the children enjoy?
If many of you will take
the time to submit this in
formation, I will in turn
compile it and make it avail
able to all as I think it would
be helpful next year.
Our vacation Bible school
theme this year was The
Bible" and we used literature
from a particular church. We
found this material lacking
in coordination and smooth
programming but their daily
stories were good. Our IA
vorite arts and crafts pro-
grams in the primary depart
ment were making vases and
jewelry boxes from plastic
detergent bottles. The junior
department enjoyed making
totem poles from egg boxes.
I hope to hear the details
of your Bible school program
and thanks to all of you.
