Maybe you are thinking about this too. Our dear friend Lynn Jordan, here in Oklahoma City was the writer of the Children’s Crafts and Gina McKean of Oklahoma City wrote the preschool crafts. Both of these ladies spend time leading and teaching children each and every week and I am so delighted they contribute so many wonderful ideas to Mr. Mark’s Classroom. They are true heroes in Children’s Ministry.After writing the craft ideas for Vacation Bible School, they tested the crafts with children to see if there were any problems they could fix and rewrite as well as the expenses of the crafts. I love knowing the crafts are tested and kids approved before they ever reached me or my teachers. Thank you for going the extra mile!Here are the reports concerning the cost for the crafts so you can better manage your budget when planning for a great VBS. Thank you Lynn and Gina for your great ideas and report for buying supplies. We love you both!Your Friend,Mr. Mark ................
