    VBS and Basketball Camp

    We are having a wonderful week at Wilderness Escape VBS and Sports Crusaders basketball camp. The kids are having so much fun and learning so much about the attributes of God. Thank you, Church, for providing the resources so we can host such great events for our families. I can’t say enough good things about the volunteers who have given their time in so many ways: helping to set up, leading tribes, doing crafts, teaching and modeling Jesus. They are awesome!  I am excited about next year (after a short rest, of course)!

    Cool off from those hot summer nights at a FREE Family Swim Night at the Bridgeton Community Pool, Friday, August 6, 6:00-8:00 p.m.

    “Give praise to the only God. He is our Savior. Glory, majesty, power and authority belong to him. Give praise to him through Jesus Christ our Lord. Give praise to the One who was before all time, who now is, and who will be forever. Amen,” (Jude 1:25).

    WE ARE HOSTING VBS AND SPORTS CAMP THIS YEAR! Yay!!!

    July 26-30 is VBS Wilderness Escape from 9:00 a.m. to12:00 p.m. We still have a few unique spots open for God to use you to help kids see how God guides and provides. If you are interested in volunteering, email Kathy at kathy@feefeebc.org or call the church office. Thank you for picking up supply donation slips.  Donate or purchase the item(s) on the slip of paper and return to church by July 5. A specific need we have is the use of many Easy-Up canopies. These will be used to recreate the Israeli marketplace for the kids to experience. If we could borrow one for that week, let me know, and bring it to the church.

    Sports Crusaders Basketball Camp is also July 26-30 from 1-4pm

    In 2019, 4 children came to know Christ through our basketball camp! What a tremendous ministry this is for our kids to enjoy and know Christ in a fun and unique way. We still have a need for bed and breakfast arrangements for the 3 female college students (1-2 homes would be great) that are leading the camp. Let me know if you can open your home to these students.

    Preschool Care Needed

    We are having more and more people returning to in-person worship so that means more children are needing care. Therefore that also means that loving, caring adults and teens are needed to help!

You will be doing a great service for our families and your church!

    Hey sports fans!! Have you missed out on sports this last year? Well, we have an opportunity for you! We will be hosting our annual basketball camp with the Sports Crusaders the same week as VBS, and we need some help to make this a successful event for our kids. Most of the needs will be helping to take care of our camp coaches and leaders, who are college students, as they work hard leading our kids in the sport. Housing, which includes bed and breakfast, and meal gift cards for other meals are the things we need help with for that week.

    If you or your Bible Study groups can help with any of these things, please contact Kathy (kathy@feefeebc.org) or (314) 739-1525. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
