Created by God!
Built for a Purpose!
Dear Members & Friends of Our Savior's Lutheran Church,
What a great week! Over 250 kids and volunteers learned, laughed, listened and loved the VBS experience. It was so amazing watching the kids get excited about God and giving without worry to help others across the world.
And now our week is over. As you arrive at OSLC, all decorations are now gone except for our "Lego Hallway." It's colorful! It's fun! It has all different shapes and sizes of blocks. Everyone comments on "The Wall." It makes an impact.
We at OSLC have been "Created by God." We are built for a purpose and have made an impact on our Stillwater community. We are like the "Lego Wall." We all have different gifts and talents to offer. We are full of color, fun and love. So as you walk through the hallway, continue to ask yourself - "How can I make an impact?
Wow God!
Lori Olson
OSLC VBS Director
