G’day mates! Welcome to the first day of Vacation Bible School – Boomerang Express! It is a bright, cool and sunny morning at the Outback! Praise God for the awesome weather (no rain!). The Kidaroos came rushing excitedly into FBC grounds for registration at 8 am, some even earlier before the registration tables were manned! Upon registration, they lined up according to their classes and awaited the march into the Music Opera House. Every morning will begin with a march into the hall, followed by the singing of the National Anthem and the recital of the Pledge to the Bible. This instills discipline and patriotism in the Kidaroos hearts.
Today at Music Opera House, a special guest showed up and caught the Kidaroos by surprise! Simon Peter came with his fishing net and taught the Kidaroos the meaning of “Peter” in Hebrew, which means “Rock”. Building up on Peter’s story, the Kidaroos learnt Bible Stories of Peter from Matthew 4 and John 1 in classrooms today. These stories taught the Kidaroos that because Jesus loves and chooses them, they can follow Him. They should also trust and obey Jesus when Jesus calls on them.
Bible Verse for Day One:
As the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you. Remain in My love. – John 15:9
At Recreation Rock, the Kidaroos got to know each other better through icebreaking games. These games proved to be a success as the Kidaroos learnt most of their friends’ names almost immediately and had fun at the same time!
Invitations to the Family Day, Sunday School Open Day and Thanksgiving & Awards Party were distributed to the classrooms today. Please reply with your RSVPs by Tuesday (tomorrow)!
