Baobab Blast – Vacation Bible School

Last week 43 children from Messiah Lutheran Church and other area churches participated in Baobab Blast a vacation bible school experience.  At Baobab Blast, the kids received a message of God’s unconditional love. They participated in activities to help them understand how to build nurturing relationships with God, family, and others. They also participated in the mission project, Africa Jam, in which they learned how to help expand God’s community.  Africa Jam is a youth empowerment organization serving more than 10,000 young people in Cape Town, South Africa.  The children also shared some of the music and bible verses they learned during vacation bible school at the Sunday worship service.  Please watch the video to see a sample of their music.  Special thanks to Dorothy Seitz the leader of this years vacation bible school and the 30 adult and youth volunteers who helped make the Baobab Blast a wonderful and enriching experience for all of our children.
