Leading children to the Lord since 2010
HISTORY OF VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
After starting the youth camp the principal of Talsi Christian School Inguna Gruznina realized that students of TCS grades 1-6 are „left behind” – students from 7th-12th grade can participate in the Youth camp and become leaders at The Orphan camps, but younger kids do not have an opportunity for a Christian camp during the summer. These kids mainly come from non Christian families. During a time of prayer God was choosing bro. Mike Heim and the family of Baptist Church of White Oak to organize the Vacation Bible School at Talsi Christian School during the summer of 2010
VBS leaves a long lasting impact on the relationships of students of TCS, because the elder students of TCS are the group leaders of VBS. Vacation Bible School 2015 - During the camp they develop friendships that last throughout the following school year. For the older students it is their responsibility to act as an example for the younger students during the school year and it really has worked!
