They finished up the week with a special night of songs and fellowship. They sang some of the songs they learned in church on July 19, including “I Will Not Be Afraid,” “Get Down” and “This Little Light of Mine.”

The Vacation Bible School was under the direction of Bonnie Donovan, the church Sunday School teachers and members of the church, along with the Rev. Earl W. Robert III, pastor.
