VBS 2022 - Water All Around the World

We are excited to share that Central will be hosting a VBS program "Water All Around the World" this June. This program is made available through Living Waters for the World, a nonprofit dedicated to providing clean and safe water for all.

It will run June 6th through 10th from 9am to 12pm and is open to children ages 3 through those entering 5th grade in the coming school year. We welcome all members and friends of Central to attend as well as friends from our neighbor 7th street churches and hopefully some other community organizations who may be looking for worthwhile youth programming this summer. 

Volunteers are needed! Ellie will be leading the programming for this week and is looking  for volunteers to help with crafts, snack, storytime and more. If you are able to help for any of our days please contact Ellie and look for more sign up info coming soon.

Prayers for this week:
Morning:

Receive, Lord, all my liberty, my memory,
my understanding, and my whole will.
You have given me all that I have, all that I am,
and I surrender all to Your divine will, that You dispose of me.
Give me only Your love and Your grace.
With this I am rich enough, and I have no more to ask.
Amen.
   -- Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)
Evening:
 
Lord, Thou knowest how I live,
What I've done amiss, forgive.
All of good I've tried to do
Strengthen, bless, and carry through.
All I love in safety keep.
While in Thee I fall asleep.
Amen.
   -- Henry van Dyke (1852-1933)
