Since the Summer Olympics were going on this summer, we decided to have an Olympic Themed VBS! We were wanting to get the kids outside playing and competing after dealing with lockdowns.
The number one rule of the game is we got to listen to THE Coach! Our Heavenly Father. When we listen to the coach, the team plays well together! Then there is the PLAYBOOK , the Bible, that shows us the directions we need to go. Then we work on Endurance and Training the Body, not physically, but spiritually! Finally, we learn cross-training! We need to learn the 5 RINGS of service:The Five Rings of Service are God, family and friends, church family, community, and world.
Each group represented a country. They competed throughout the week to earn medals by good conduct or winning an event!
There were several Olympic events and races in each small group!
