“A Prayer for Vacation Bible School 2021”

Vacation Bible School is approaching very quickly on July 26th-29th! I am excited to not only see those who normally help continuing but new volunteers stepping up too. The future of HPBC looks bright as new leadership emerges. Vacation Bible School is one of the biggest outreaches we do, so expect the devil to work against it. Here are three specific areas to pray for as we prepare:

1. Pray for the children attending VBS, that their hearts will be changed as they hear the gospel throughout the week.

2. Pray for our VBS volunteers as they faithfully and enthusiastically lead the kids each night.

3. Pray that, as a church, we will build relationships with the families that attend VBS for the purpose of sharing the gospel and partnering with them in discipleship.

 I look forward to seeing God work in a mighty way this summer. We covet your prayers and support!

 Pastor James

This ordinance is not for everyone.  This is only to be taken by those who are believers and accepted Jesus as their ultimate forgiver and leader.  To partake in this service in an unworthy state is sin. 1 Corinthians 11:27 (NLT) 27 So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord unworthily is guilty of s
