Vacation Bible School -- 2006

One of the longest running and most successful traditions at Northtown is Vacation Bible School. It's supposedly for kids (aged 2 through the 6th grade), but in reality is enjoyed by about as many teens and adults as kids.

This year, VBS had a pirate theme. But all of the familiar elements were there, including The Professor, the Evangelator and Gospel Girl, and a puppet show.

Accounts of the 2003 VBS the 2004 VBS and the 2005 VBS are also online.

Cast members relax before the show . . .
. . . as kids engage in some horseplay outside . . .
. . . and talk to the adults.
Time to line up to go in . . .
. . . and find the Dread Pirate Robert -- and Penny -- in charge.
Kids love a "high five" from the Dread Pirate -- the most popular all time Bob Monroe VBS character.
There is a pirate skit.
Kids go outside to play . . .
. . . and enjoy refreshments.
Back inside, the Devil appears, and is driven away by a Bible verse . . .
. . . and the kids see a Bible drama based on the life of Paul.
On the last night, the show ends with the cast coming onstage and spraying the audience with silly string!
