As Fr. Lewis noted in his July 14th bulletin reflection, "a large number of our youth and youth from other parishes joined us for Vacation Bible School. Our children learned through games and crafts, puppet shows, singing and faith lessons to discover, respect, protect, serve and celebrate life: their own and that of all others. To see and participate in their joy was most certainly “Spirit and Life.” Heartfelt appreciation and thanks to all the volunteers from the parish and beyond who, under the direction of Pam & Jill King, provided an unforgettable encounter with Christ for our children."
