Vacation Bible School

For this year's Vacation Bible School we created an outdoor Nazareth Village one week in July. Each child belonged to a family clan and spent the evening visiting shops in the marketplace, hearing Jesus share one of his parables, pacifying the tax collector, playing games and learning to dance the hora, and studying in the synagogue.
