I've been a counselor/teacher at camp and VBS weeks for 30 years now! Wow, that seems like I'm old when I say it out loud, but I don't feel old - especially when serving at VBS. I feel rejuvenated during and after being with a group of kids who are excited to learn about Jesus! Planting those seeds of God's love, seeing them learn something new, singing, playing, crafting and even just sitting and listening to a child is so very rewarding and inspiring.
I really get into "themes"! Ask anyone. My eyes light up and my creative engine starts whirring as soon as we start talking about a program, event or project in a staff meeting! Each summer, as our church and classrooms transform into the great outdoors, under the sea, a laboratory, a tropical island, etc.; we all get a rush of enthusiasm! Henry Chester says that ENTHUSIASM is the greatest asset in the world. It beats money and power and influence. It is no more or less than faith in action. And, I believe it's how God wants us to live each day. What gets your engine running? Where is your passion? Use it to serve for the glory of the Lord! And, if some "indoor" wilderness camping sounds like it would float your boat - we can always use more help at VBS the week of June 10th!
Enthusiastically Serving Our Great God,
Karen Neumeyer
