Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6
Points to Pray for the VBS 1. Each kid who will be attending – regular attendance all the days, rapport with the peers and teachers, enthusiasm, participation and above all conviction to practice what is learnt. 2. The Sunday school teachers – the group they will be handling, wisdom to plan and teach, dedication, health and safety, free from personal problems that cloud the mind thereby thwarting the effectiveness of the program. 3. The Headmistress and Director – to effectively plan, coordinate, organize and mobilize resources; create a pleasant environment and a well structured event, eliminating flaws to the maximum, endear themselves peaceably with all. 4. The Volunteers to arrive on time and give their best participation all the days. 5. Pray for Parents - to give their time and efforts in completing the home assignments, help nourish the kids as they begin to practice what they’ve learnt. 6. For each day’s session to be presented well and received well by the children a. Session 1: Go Lead – Judges 7:1-22 b. Session 2: Go Risk – Esther 4-7 c. Session 3: Go Tell – Matthew 27:27 – 54; 28:1-10 d. Session 4: Go Obey – Acts 5: 17 - 32 e. Session 5: Go Serve – Acts 9: 1-19 7. Dedicate the hall for the glory of God.
