Shake It Up- “Thank you, Thank you, Thank you” to everyone involved in Vacation Bible School this week What a tremendous success! We include a special thanks to Donna Wade for accepting and fulfilling the role of chairperson and to all of her support staff. It is incredible to witness what our young adults have added with their many ideas, talents and enthusiasm. Also, special thanks to our junior high and high school youth who helped and participated with enthusiasm in all of the activities…you are wonderful role models for our young children. Thanks also to the many youngsters (over 70 some nights) who participated in Bible School and to their parents for encouraging them and getting them here. Hopefully everyone was able to witness some part of this impressive display of God’s blessings on our parish. EIF Commission
