Vacation Bible School has been a great blessing.  One of the most important things we can do is pass on the faith to the children - the hope of the future.  Teaching about different stories in the Bible in a fun setting helps instill these lessons in the minds and hearts of these great students.  They are eager to learn and interested to find out what the next adventure.  In Bible Adventure Drama - Day One is all about King David and Psalm 23, the Good Shepherd.  Day Two is about Queen Esther and how she saved the people by interceding for them with the King.  Day Three is about Nehemia who helped build the ruined wall of Jerusalem.  Day Four is about the death and resurrection of Our Lord.  And the last day is about King Josiah, who became king at the age of eight and helped to rebuild the temple.  Even though he came from a line of bad kings, he wanted to be like good King David.
     The children learn to turn to God in prayer when they need to stand strong, when they are afraid or when they need help.  They learn that God is always with them and that they can always trust God.  
     We pray that these lessons will bless them and bring them close to Jesus so that one day, we will all meet again in heaven, to be happy forever with our Heavenly Father.

Thanks to our friend who made the Corpus Christi Canopy.  He gave us a fascinating tour of Natick Labs where they research and design for our soldiers who are put in harm's way to protect our country, our freedom.

May All Christians Fight for the Kingdom of Christ through Our Immaculate Mother:
ST. MAXIMILIAN KOBLE:  While still a student friar, not yet a priest, St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe, OFM CONV., founded the Militia of the Immaculata on October 16, 1917 in Rome, Italy. The MI today continues to follow the original charter he gave to it then. The Original Charter of the MI "She shall crush your head" (Gn 3:15). "You alone (Mary) have crushed all heresies in the whole world" (former Office of the BVM). "Modern times are dominated by Satan and will be more so in the future. The conflict with hell cannot be engaged by men, even the most clever. The lmmaculata alone has from God the promise of victory over Satan. However, assumed into heaven, the Mother of God now requires our cooperation. She seeks souls who will consecrate themselves entirely to her, who will become in her hands effective instruments for the defeat of Satan and the spreading of God's kingdom upon earth."
