= Promise of the week: James 1:5 "If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously, without criticizing, and it will be given to him." = media type="custom" key="6634399" media type="custom" key="6634419"

We are looking forward to getting together with you as we dig into God's Word and seek Him in the Adventure He has for us this week!
=== Do you know what True Love looks like? Do you know what God has to say about His people? Can we really trust Him in ALL circumstances? Is there really an absolute Truth, or is it all relative? What about rules: What are they for, anyway? What is fellowship really all about? How close can you really get to God Himself? Do I even matter to Him? These are just some of the things we will ask Him about this week. Its a Pickup and Go (to God) Adventure with several surprises... === === As we dig in to find His Wisdom, we will have the opportunity to make a Message in Media, helping share the message "Need Answers, Ask God!" I can't wait to see what He inspires you to come up with! Have any good ideas already? Why not write them down. We would love to hear what you are considering! As we work together with the King, He will take what we come up with and invest it in heaven for further purpose. All part of His Plan... Part of His Awesome Kingdom that never ends...===

We would love to borrow digital cameras and camcorders for our project. Do you have one you are able to use? Please make sure you have parental permission to bring them to VBS.
