Today I hung around and observed the Vacation Bible School at Jefferson Baptist Church. There are almost 400 kids here and about the same number of volunteers, teachers, snack fixers, parking attendants, craft supervisors etc I was amazed at how organized everything was and how fluid the various ages, events, and programs worked together. It was truly harmony in motion. Every one was doing their thing and fitting in with everyone else and there were maybe 6 people getting paid for their efforts, the rest of the hundreds of workers were volunteers. It was a great picture of what the church is supposed to be. Everyone was happy, serving, influencing others for eternity.

I am not sure how all that I saw today came to be, but the Lord has certainly built his church well at JBC.
