On this week's addition of Way Back Wednesday we take a look back at VBS over the years! We have always made VBS fun for kids and the adults alike here at St John! This July will be no different as we celebrate our last VBS with Pastor Bob. See if you can spot some of these kiddos from years past celebrating Christ through games, dancing, Bible stories, snacks, and of course VBS songs!!!

It has been a full week here in the church office and we missed Way Back Wednesday. 😭 But don't fear- This week we will just have a Throw Back Thursday instead!!!😉
In 2008 We were lucky enough to help Pastor Bob celebrate his 25th Ordination Anniversary. Our family of faith here at St John have made many sweet memories over the years, and the last 37 with our beloved Pastor Bob will be ones we cherish always.
