JCS Marikina headed by its Fellowship Ministry conducted a free Daily Vacation Bible School (DVBS) last summer ~ April 30, 2006. the three day summer school was conducted in the town of Cupang, Antipolo, a town just outside the border of Marikina city. The church saw the need to conduct summer school because of the lack of proper education the students of the area were receiving.
The kids were divided into age groups wherein a dedicated teacher presided over. The groups ranged from primary, secondary, intermediate and advanced. More than sixty kids from two barangays joined. The church gave graduation certificates, diplomas and honor medals on the third day. The church even served snacks or "merienda" for all the students. The church had to cut down on the number of days to hold the DVBS due to budget constraints. We have the talents, we have the heart... and God willing with your participation... the budget. |
