Kilcoy Vacation Bible School

The unexpected success of VBS was a delightful surprise for all of us.

This past July 2024, Bro. John and I, along with our three children (Boaz, Phinehas, and Hezekiah), traveled to Guyana for a few weeks to help support some of the preaching efforts in Guyana. Bro. Rafeek, Sis. Rose Soolaman and our nephew Zarath also traveled with us. One of the main projects for this trip was to run a Vacation Bible School (VBS) and outreach in the village of Kilcoy.

Additionally, we intended to spend some focused time with a group of young people from the local community, with whom we have been having virtual CYC classes for the last four years. We are happy to share that five young ladies from this group asked us for baptism classes on this trip and have been taking baptismal preparation studies with us for the past few months! We expect a few members to be added to Kilcoy ecclesia shortly, God-willing. 

The VBS was a humbling experience that exceeded our expectations in ways words cannot express. With over 100 attendees, God truly blessed this effort, and the response was so overwhelming that the hall was bursting at the seams with children. The unexpected success of VBS was a delightful surprise for all of us.

Please look for the February CBMA/CBMC Newsletter to see the whole story and many more photos of the amazing experience.
