During the week of July 9 to 13, the Reformed Church hosted “Sky” Vacation Bible School.

Each day about 150 kids attended and the committee would like to thank its 59 volunteers for making Sky VBS a great success. Each day the kids travelled in “crews” to the Imagination Station,  All-Star Games, Wild Blue Bible Adventures and Snack Service.

This year organizers collected money to buy mosquito nets for children in Mali, Africa. Thanks to the generosity of the Drayton community, they will be sending a cheque to World Vision for $600, which will allow them to buy 100 mosquito nets to protect up to 200 children from malaria-carrying mosquitos.

Organizers look forward to seeing everyone back next year (the theme will be “Kingdom Rock – where kids stand strong for God”).
