Village VBS

Ethan is off helping with Village VBS(Vacation Bible School) in two Alaskan villages for two weeks.  He also went last summer and thoroughly enjoyed his time out in the villages with the kids, helping the Buckwalters, and getting to fly in a small plane!  So since he enjoyed it so much, he gladly volunteered for this summer as well!
Last week they taught VBS in the village of Perryville.  Ethan was a few days late as he and Dan Buckwalter got caught here in Homer with bad weather.  Ethan had his bag packed by Saturday evening, but they didn't get to fly out until Thursday morning.  The wait was a little difficult for all of us, but Ethan did great at finding things to do around here until that phone rang!

This week Ethan is in the village of Pilot Point.  Helen said they have ten kids joining them each day...that ought to keep them hopping!  We look forward to hearing Ethan's stories when he returns...hopefully by the end of the week!  Please be praying they have good weather to fly home!
