Thank you for all the help during our week at Cave Quest VBS!  Whether you helped each day, prayed for us, or simply lent us a hammer or two, you are much appreciated!  We had 136 children attend this year and are confident the Spirit was at work.  Our offering totaled $908.82 for Hope Haven to purchase wheelchairs.  Jana Zeutenhorst and Amy Chapa
