What a fantastic time everyone had for the last night of Bible
School!! SonWorld Adventure Park was the theme. There were

the highlight of the evening was seeing the kids (and some of the
adults) trying to get Pastor Joe, Julie Dull, Joel Black & Vicki Keller
soaked!! What a blast!! A big thank-you to everyone who helped make the
event a success and a special thanks to Vicki Keller for organizing this
wonderful event!!

The Kids had a great time at the first night of Bible School. There

bring a friend!! Don't forget that Thursday night is the SonWorld
Adventure Park Block Party!! Be sure to be ready to try your aim at
Pastor Joe in the dunking machine!
