Huge Group Enjoyed VBS at Dieciocho de Marzo

pointupThere were over 90 kids who showed up to have fun while learning about Jesus at the Vacation Bible School in Dieciocho de Marzo this week (August 17-19). True Path Ministry, Pastor Jose and the members of his church worked very hard to put on a memorable, Christ-centered event. Yessi, her Mom (Sonia), Martin and his wife (Ana) were joined by a group of volunteers eager to work with children.

An overflow crowd of kids participated in Christian songs, games, plays, Bible memory contests, sermons and meals. “It was a blessing to be with the kids as they learned about and praised our Lord,” said Martin, with True Path Ministry. “It was a special time with Christ that both the children and adults will remember a long time.”

Dieciocho de Marzo is a tiny, economically poor community located about ten miles northwest of Galeana. Pastor Jose leads a vibrant and spirit-filled church, but they have very limited resources. “We at True Path Ministry are glad we could partner with the church to bring Vacation Bible School to the community,” said Stephen.

Accurately reciting memory verses was one of the activities.
