Increase Hits

Everything is costing more and more. This morning I heard airline pilots are being asked to fly with less fuel. Less weight means less fuel usage.

Our church has our Vacation Bible School effort the first full week of August. VBS is a huge endeavor by our small congregation to reach children in our neighborhood with the Gospel.

Bob and I were speaking Sunday with this year's director. She has sent out a plea for contributions to cover the costs of food and drink. Our program will be 5 evenings and includes a snack break. She says the costs have nearly doubled.

We are making an effort to attract more children than the 65 we had with us last year which translates into more food expenses.

The Director said the materials except for a few craft supplies have been paid for out of the church's budget. She's wanting more $ to assure healthy and sufficient snacks for the children.

Every where you turn, costs are going up and up. Sounds like inflation.

'til later
