VBS at First UMC

The girls were nervous to go to VBS due to the fact that they haven't gotten to know very many kids at our new church.  Philomena helped with the youngest class.  Maggie participated in the oldest class.  I helped wherever Charity needed me each night.  They each made a good friend near their age the first night and are looking forward to church each week now!

 

Maggie's New Glasses

We discovered that Maggie needs reading glasses.  She's excited for her first pair of glasses!
