Vacation Bible School
Calling all cowboys and cowgirls, save your place by our campfire at
Saddle Ridge Ranch, July 12-15, 2010!
Ranch staff in search of:
- Hay bales
- Saddles
- Wagon wheels
- Barrels
- Cowboy hats
- Volunteer ranch hands
If you would be willing to loan us any of these items for the week of VBS, or if you’re interested in being a volunteer ranch hand, please contact VBS wranglers: Sarah Hart (sarah.hart@yahoo.com) or Walton Foster (wkfoster@comcast.net).
Kind-Hearted Ranch-hands Needed!
In keeping with our purpose “to...share the abundant life of Jesus Christ”, we would like to open the doors of our Vacation
Bible School (VBS) to children who might not otherwise have the opportunity to experience a summer Bible school. We need “sponsors” for these little cowboys and cowgirls, as their caregivers are often unable to take off work to volunteer. Volunteer your time only (we request 2 of the 4 days of VBS, 8:30am -12:30pm); there is no financial obligation. Please help us reach out! If you are interested or would like to know more, please contact VBS co-Wrangler Sarah Hart at 292-7800 or
sarah.hart@yahoo.com.
Service Opportunities for Children
Junior Acolytes lead the children as they process in and out of the nave for Children’s Chapel, and read the gospel reading in Children’s Chapel. In order to serve, acolytes must attend a training session on Wednesday. For more information, please contact Abby Lomax at 385-2150 x 265 or abby.lomax@stgeorgesnashville.org.
Worship Leaders help lead our Children’s Chapel music. Practices are weekly, following St. Dunstan’s Choir practice on Wednesdays at 5:45pm. Children must attend practice the week prior to leading worship.
Supporting our Sister Atrium at St. Thomas, in Kagiso, South Africa is a great way for children of all ages to be involved. Our children can support the children of that parish by making the materials they need or giving money to buy on-going supplies.
For more information about any of these opportunities, email children@stgeorgesnashville.org.
