Kodiak Alaska VBS

I got mobbed by kids for a group hug and just had to take a picture! What a great trip. Can't wait to go back in 3 years!!!

Our group of VBS children at the closing service when parents were invited to come and see what the children learned throughout the week.

We stayed at a retreat center on Island Lake. Look at this gorgeous lake, and I'm out canoeing at 11 o clock at night!

Look a this sweet view of Kodiak harbor from the gun deck of the US Coast Guard Cutter Munro. We were given a tour by the Captain of the ship!

We all had a chance to go for a boat ride around Kodiak with Captain Tony and his trusty fishing boat.

Here I am inside of a Coast Guard C130. It was amazing, like a was about to fly out hatch without a parachute to be saved by Harrison Ford clinging to a strap!

Pastor Bob with one of our Gadget Groups on Kodiak. We served approximately 60 kids per day.

We took a ride on the Ferry Tustamena between Homer and Kodiak. You can see the fin of a whale off to the left of the picture. We had several great whale viewings, although I slept through the first one!

Here is our group getting at the airport in St. Louis. We had 15 youth and 4 adults from our church plus 2 adults from Louisiana. What a great team!
