VBS 2008!!!

  i had a great, stretching, growing, fun time teaching bible school in Canada again this year.  but i don't feel like posting about it, because all i have is dial up, and  Hudson (upstreet) already updated about it...  so if you want to see more pictures and here about it go to his sight.  that doesn't mean i wouldn't mind some comments tho... lol

remember, Jesus loves you!!!

 Just got back from a back from Cherry Creek SD.  We had an awesome time helping with the bible school there.  There was so many times when we didn't have a clue what was going to happen and the Lord worked it out.  Like the weather for instance, it was so unpredictable and we were having the majority of the bible school outside, so even with all the rain and 2 hail storms we only had to alter bible school once.

Here's a pic of Chaz and Malik

This is Moonlight, she was one of my good little friends...  she would come down to the school and pretty much beg for attention.

here's Angelica and Charissa.

A little love goes a long way.

our faithful statue Austin

Jonny and the little TERROR

Krystel and Jalissa

Dorran.  Sis found him in the middle of the street sobbing because his mom had left him at home alone.  You can't look at him without feeling pity.

 So it was a really awesome time, even if Cherry Creek was evacuated due to flooding while we were there.  And the fact that i slept, taught my class, ate my food, and hung out in the same room.

We've got the POWER!!!!!!!!!!!  that was the theme of our week.  

God bless,

Doyle
