Day 4 - Thursday
Check out the great fun we had on the fourth day of Midnight Museum 2009 in our photo gallery. Also, check out the preschool program photos here.
Today was another adventurous day at The Midnight Museum. It’s hard to believe that we only have one more day left of VBS. This has been an amazing week and we have loved getting to watch all the kids and adults, have so much fun. On Monday morning, the kids enter the Worship Center a little bit unsure and reserved, not quite knowing what to expect. But by day 4, the kids come running in, excited to get to their groups and see their new friends. And even while they are waiting for Tim to come out and start the morning worship, they are singing and doing the hand motions in the aisles!
Once again, Tim helped us kick off the day with an incredible time of worship! We’ve heard from the “Groove Teamâ€, how touching it is to look out into the sanctuary and see almost 2,000 kids all worshipping together.
The drama team taught us today that God is always with us. We saw how Mr. Spaceman was lonely but with the help of Janitor Joe and his friends, he discovered he didn’t need to be. He learned that no matter where we are, God is always with us.
Today was pizza day at snack, always a favorite, which gave the kids enough energy to enjoy all the other rotations! While eating their snack, the kids were visited by the cast, and were able to get their t-shirts signed. As a special treat, Boomer, Bambi and Madame Curator were also on site, signing t-shirts and encouraging the kids to bring in their offering for the kids in Peru.
The kindergarten kids were treated to “Water Day†during recreation. There were huge inflated water slides, blow-up pools, and kids having good old fashion water fun! This is ALWAYS a highlight of their week! And don’t forget tomorrow is “Water Day†for the 1st-5th graders. Kids should wear their swimsuits under their clothes, and bring a towel.
At the Peru Exhibit (Missions), the kids were visited by some dancers from Peru, and were taught a new Peruvian dance. Make sure to ask your kids to show you what they learned… it’s super entertaining!
At the end of the day, as the kids enter the Worship Center for the closing program, they get excited as they anticipate the “RAWR†of the T-Rex!! You can hear the high-pitched scream of the kids all the way across the campus…it’s awesome!
The kids have been working hard to raise money for the kids in Peru, and as of today, have brought in $12,110.96. That means they only need $10,000.00 more by tomorrow to reach our goal of $22,000.00! Remember, if we reach our goal, not only will we get to help the kids in Peru, but we will get to “SLIME†Pastor Trisha and Tim Timmons!
See you all in at the Midnight Museum tomorrow!
