The journey back to Jerusalem has ended but hopefully not the impact it has made upon the lives of the children who attended and their gift to the children in Haiti. We give praise to the Lord for 148 children who registered for VBS this year with an average attendance of 109 per night.

Most exciting was to see the heart of the children as they reached out to the children in Haiti raising $903.48 to feed nearly 300 children or 10 classrooms for a month!

Over 100 volunteers from four churches came together to make this event happen. A special note of gratitude goes to the Youth of St. John for without them Jerusalem the Marketplace would have remained a dream.

And thank you,thank you , thank you to Kathy Collert, our VBS Director this year for the countless hours of preparation and on a job well done! Praise the Lord!
