What a wonderful week our Knights of North Castle had, learning about God and Jesus and having fun! We had a total of about 70 different children there, and thanks to the dedication of our staff and helpers, they had a great time!

Thanks a million to our Sunday School Superintendent Elaine Luoma and our Creative Director Mary Ann Jones, who made all this possible. And special thanks to all the parents/grandparents/caregivers who made sure the kids were there every evening. If not for you, there would be no VBS!
