Kids Adventure: "Super-U"
Monday started the beginning of our third annual Kids Adventure (aka. VBS) program at our church, The River. In years past we've been disappointed with small turnouts, but this year God did something big - we had over 40 kids show up the first night alone.
Our week long program is amazingly created by Kidmo, a company that specializes in creating excellent Bible teaching DVDs for kids. Children's Director Lisa runs the program with energy, excitement and a passion that I've yet to see replicated by any children's program director.
"Super-U" is this year's theme and it focuses on teaching kids how to Choose Wisely, Trust God, Live Life on Purpose, Hang Tough and Take Risks for God. The programs main character Johnny Rogers uses a multitude of kid friendly (and lets be honest, adults dig it too)graphics, cartoon, live action, and even puppetry - reminiscent of a homemade Mr. Rogers Neighborhood - when it's called for.
What's so exciting this year is not only the number of kids lives will be touched with the message of Jesus' love for them, but the number of quality adults giving of their time, talent and treasure to serve every night this week. We have engineers, teachers, nurses and more professionals serving kids in K-6th grade; wow, what a blessing.
So, because I rarely post without some photography included, here are a few of my favorite photographs from the past few nights. Enjoy!










Blessings,
Christine Lee Smith

First off, your photos are beautiful. Thank you for the post. I am looking for a new tool to teach kids the Bible. I have not seen this company before thank you!!
A book recently has been a big hit for us for the young ones is "This Bible Talks!" by Pamela Fischer. Narrated by Michael David McGuire. The kids have been really excited about it so I thought I would pass it along. Here is their website: http://www.thisbibletalks.com
Thank you again for the links to the DVD program and about your program. Nice job!!
