VBS—Adventures in Universe City “Seeking God Everywhere” July 29-August 1
Our Vacation Bible School this year is centered around seeking God everywhere in
the world, galaxy, universe and beyond! It will be from 6:00 to 8:00 each evening
Sunday through Wednesday and will include Bible stories, crafts, snacks and a time
of singing and rejoicing. Be sure to make use of the “All Access Visitor Pass” by giv-
ing them out to your school friends and neighbor kids. Matt Bancroft is organizing
things this year and he could use lots of helpers. A sign-up sheet is available on the
teen bulletin board in the side hallway.
VBS is for Adults Too!
For the adults we have Mike O’Neal from the North Brevard Church of Christ in
Orlando, who will present exciting messages all four nights. The title and a short
summary of each session is listed below. His presentations are from his book An
Angel’s View: Encountering God through the Stories of the Heavenly Hosts.
Look for a flyer with his bio and more information next week.
Spirituality and Spaceflight (Sunday Night)
Many of our nation’s astronauts are viewed as men and women of great intellect
and courage, but many are also men and women of great faith. This session will
look into the role spirituality has played in human space flight. Stories will be
shared on how astronauts have spiritually prepared themselves to go into space,
how they practiced their faith in space, and how space has profoundly impacted
their spirituality. This multimedia presentation features Apollo-era audio, video of
an astronaut’s worship on the International Space Station, along with many breath-
taking pictures accompanied by encouraging stories.
The Holiness of God: Angels’ Worship & Praise (Monday Night)
Angels have much to teach us about our holy God. From standing in His awe-
inspiring presence, Scripture reveals that these angelic eyewitnesses were dramati-
cally impacted by the power, majesty, and holiness emanating from their Lord and
Creator. And as such, their subsequent response not only informs us of God’s holi-
ness but challenges us today to approach our God in a more honorable manner.
The Love of God: Angels and the Redemption Story (Tuesday Night)
God’s love for humanity is perhaps the most amazing and unfathomable aspect of
our gracious Creator. During this session, His love will be examined through the
stories of the angels’ involvement in the redemption story. From Gabriel’s an-
nouncement to Mary through the early stages of the spread of the Gospel, angels
were actively proclaiming God’s intentions and assuring the success of His redemp-
tion plan. His love was being extended and angels served Him in mighty ways in
this ministry.
An Angel’s View: The Crucifixion & Resurrection (Wednesday Night)
Built on a biblical framework, the crucifixion and resurrection is explored through
the perspective of the angels. Angels appear at the other major events concerning
Jesus, but where were they when Jesus went to the cross? What significance can
be drawn from their presence at the resurrection? Mike examines this topic
through a captivating parallel with his personal experiences during the Space Shut-
tle Challenger tragedy.

Keith’s Kitchen…
Keith’s Kitchen is an op-
portunity to support our
work in Honduras. Each
Wednesday at 6:15PM
Keith prepares a deli-
cious meal. The teens help with the
dessert, drinks and clean-up. All
proceeds go to the accounts of stu-
dents who help. There is no set fee
but your generous checks should be
made to Tampa Youth Missions.
Meals are suspended until after VBS.
They will resume on Wednesday,
August 8th. If you would like to be
added to the new Dessert List, let
the office know.
Bridal Shower…
There will be a Bridal
Shower for Heather
Stewart on Saturday,
July 14 at 10:00AM at the
home of Suzanne Holder. Heather
will be marrying Casey Boyer in Sep-
tember. They are registered at Tar-
get, Macy’s and Bed Bath & Beyond.
Baby Girl & Boy Gift Basket…
A gift basket for the twins, Janelle &
Jayden, is located in F-1. They were
born on June 9 to Joseph & Shondra
Mitchell. Shondra is the daughter of
Dorothy Rozier.

tion Center in the back of the audi-
torium. Note: Birthdays and anni-
