The highlight and capstone of our Catholic Vacation Bible School.
The picture to the left is reposted with permission from Margaret’s post. It shows only some of what was a couple hundred kids — some as young as four. They are facing the monstrance from all sides of the altar, kneeling, singing hymns and praise songs. It lasted about half an hour.
I’m told that VBSs often end with a pageant or recital in which the children gather to perform for their parents the songs or skits they learned during the week. This is kind of like that.
Only it’s totally different, as I hope you can see. Because they’re not performing for us. These kids are prepared. They’ve spent all week working on it. They know who it is they’re singing for, and they are totally focused on Him. You really have to see it to believe it.
