Yesterday’s story was Jesus Tells about a Sower. We sowed seeds in a path where people walked but birds ate the seed, rocky ground (rocks laying on a dark brown towel), ground that also grew vines, and finally good soil. Managing all the birds, seeds, vines, and plants must have been overwhelming – I took no pictures.
Today’s story was Jesus Tells about a Lost Son. Note: two boys wanted to be the wayward son, so we had two sons. Here the father is giving his sons money to go out into the world:
The sons spent the money foolishly including buying pizza and soda for two party girls:
The sons are hungry and desperate and find work on a farm. One son took care of the pigs while the other intently raked the green grass.
The father welcomes home his lost son:
A few pictures from the other groups I worked with:
Thinking about eating the pig food:
The older brother was unhappy as the father greeted the son:
Isabella and the horse became immediate and fast friends. She named him Hot Cocoa and gave him a hug before she left each day.
As a little break from storytelling/acting, we used the props from the party scene to take group photos.
Lunch served by the lunch crew. Deena Nickel (at right taking a picture) organized Vacation Bible School this year.
