Let's Hit that Trail !

Dear Ranch Hands,

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus !

As we undertake the countdown to VBS, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for serving at VBS 2010 and to encourage you to just do your best.

God has gifted you and placed His hand upon you to bless you and to make you a blessing. We see the many talents and creativeness in each group of ranch hands. We thank you for your efforts to plan and prepare for the fun and exciting time for the children. As you serve and bless the children, I am certain that you shall also be blessed.

The burden of Ministry is not ours to carry. God will do the work. We only need to ABIDE - He will bring fruit. As we sow, He will give the increase.

Remember that He is our shield and our great reward. (Psalm 5:12) If you are struggling with work or other obligations/responsibilities during this countdown and wondering how you will cope with serving at VBS - we ask that you be still before our Lord and seek Him.

Our Saddle Ridge Ranch theme song recites James 1:5 -

Now if any one of you
Lacks wisdom
He should ask of God
Who gives to all
Generously and without criticizing And it will be given to him

He is always there for us. I can testify that His love and the grace He gives to us is truly amazing. His ways are not our ways but it is the best - one that you cannot fathom. Remember to ask Him for answers. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Do your best, ranch hands - God will do the rest.


Blessings,
Trail Boss


John 15:16 says "You did not choose me but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit - fruit that will last."

Bible Study Bunkhouse Decorations

Dear Teaching Ranch Hands (especially for Main Teachers),

We have tried to register as many cowpokes as we can. And we have also considered the size of your classroom. It is going to be a tight-fit. But look at the positive side - the kids in your class won't have much room to move around so you don't have to play "catch" with them......

Anyway,try not to use too much floor space for classroom decorations. Please have a look at the pictures in our Blog for ideas. However, it is not about creating the classroom with the best decoration. Let us not forget the purpose of our Vacation Bible School - it is about introducing kids from non-Christian families to Jesus, it is about planting seeds for God and it is about bringing our Sunday School children closer to Jesus !

I pray that all of us will remember to keep constant focus on God in our buziness and preparation for VBS.

Blessings,
Poh Gek
