Last Sunday was the graduation day of Vacation Bible Schoolers. It was also the set day for the distribution of School Supplies. It was a surprise for the kids. The kids were excited to receive their certificates and their awards but little they know that aside from the certificates and rewards, they would also take home some school supplies. Nobody told them about the “School Supplies” even during the 3-day Vacation Bible School. It came as a surprise.
Going back earlier, We (the volunteers and I) prepared a total of 53 sets of school supplies

which includes ball pens, pencil, sharpener, eraser, colors, notebook, glue stick and ruler.
We also prepared different set for the pre-schoolers which consist of an activity book and a color.I did the shopping of the school supplies week before the distribution.
Before we started the distribution, I told the parents and the children that the money which was used to buy the school supplies was from generous friends and acquaintances who shared their hard-earned money to help the kids with their school needs.
Since it was also a graduation, we encouraged the kids to bring their parents and to be in their best Sunday dress. Some parents came but most didn’t. So one of the VBS teachers proxy their parents. But I believed all the kids went home happy because not only they received their certificates and rewards, but also they brought home some things they need but don’t expect to receive and that was because of the generosity and kindness of those who support this endeavor.

All things are made possible through God’s guidance, intervention and grace. Nothing is accomplished, given and received without God’s help. Praise God for answered prayer and for using even those I don’t know personally to be a part of this project. May His name be glorified and praised through this endeavor.
Congratulations to all of you for a generous endeavor!
Waahh too bad I wasn’t able to give for this one. Too busy with the routines that I forgot to do other things.
