More photos from the Vacation Bible School

Group photo of the younger children

It was a truly special week here in our parish as the Vacation Bible School was held with close to 90 children attending and close to 30 youth attending the evening session. The VBS ended on Thursday evening for the youth around a bon-fire at the McLean residence, and it ended on Friday afternoon with a water-fight for the younger children. The 4 Totus Tuus leaders, Anna, Thomas, Michael and Dominique were also doused with chocolate syrup, whip-cream and colored sprinkles, thankfully washed down with water afterwards. These photos show some of the fun, and a new group photo to include most of the children.

The annual Vacation Bible School was held in our parish between Sunday June 21 and 26, this year led by the Totus Tuus team who spent a whole week in our parish, mingling with children and parishioners, inspiring young people and spreading the message of faith and peace. The team was made up of Anna, Dominique, Michael and Thomas, and was ably complimented by a handful of teachers, volunteers, High School and middle-schoolers. A Pot Luck was held on Wednesday - these photos show some of the activities and scenes from this hectic and busy week. (click on each photo to enlarge)
