I just wanted to point out that I was in no way criticizing the way my church handled VBS this year.  The volunteers did an awesome job teaching and caring for my children (and the director did a fantastic job of making sure everything got done, and that there were enough volunteers to do it–no small task, and not one I want to undertake again for quite some time–I don’t think I’ve recovered from my experience six years ago!), the crafts were neat (especially the stepping-stones!), the music was fun and memorable, and my children learned more about Jesus and had a great time!  I just wish our churches had more and/or better options from which to choose, while still being confident that what they are teaching is doctrinally appropriate.
