AWA Flight Log@21st November 2012

 Day Two – Wednesday, 21st November 2012

We continued our flight with an AMAZING day 2! All of us had a uplifting time in the worship hall singing our hearts out to God and praising Him with the theme song and a song we learned yesterday, Remarkable. After a wonderful time of songs and praise, the passengers watched a short and meaningful movie about God’s protection and how He always watches over us. Captain Joshua gave an invigorating devotion about God’s ability to save us from sin and death and His great mercy towards us.

Next, the passengers flew to their respective classes to hear from Word of God. Their teachers taught them about the miraculous story of Daniel in the lion’s den and how God protected him from the mouths of the lions, taken from Daniel chapter 6. The passengers learned about God’s power over circumstances.

Then, as the VBS Bell rang, the passengers travelled from site to site, learning more about God and His power over all things. First, they travelled to the Matterhorn, where they learned some cool actions and moves  to the beat of ‘If God’. The passengers were very delighted and eager to learn the steps of the song, and under the guidance of the music team, they quickly mastered the song and were soon dancing and singing to the words of this meaningful song.

Next, they flew to the Grand Canyon for recreation and some exciting games. They played a well known game called ‘What Time Is It, Mr. Lion?’ The Grand Canyon was filled with sounds of laughter and excitement.

Soon after, the passengers stopped at the Paricutin Volcano for snacks and drinks. They had tasty Spaghetti Propellers, Magma Milk and zesty Orange Juice. After they were refreshed and full, they blasted off with a ZOOM! to the next station, Missions Under The Northern Lights. There, they learned about the state of Sarawak, and how we could spread the gospel to the people who still have not heard about the Word. They also learned that we have to rely on God’s holy power in order to spread the gospel effectively to the ends of the earth.

Lastly, the passengers flew off to their last destination, The Great Barrier Reef to do some crafts. Today, they made a fridge magnet in the shape of an envelope, to keep their mail in.

After all the exciting activities, the passengers returned to the Victoria Falls for their closing session of bible study. They swiftly finished the lesson and today’s topic, and then headed off to the Hangar for yet another time of praise and worship.  After they sang the songs that they learned, they zoomed home to prepare for another day of fun and learning about God’s work.

Small reminder: Photo Shoot Day tomorrow!  Don’t forget to bring all the RSVP slips and also wear your VBS T-shirts for photo shoot!

Day 1 of VBS 2012!


Day One – Tuesday, 20th November 2012

We started the first day of VBS with a BOOM! The passengers came flying in early in the morning with much excitement. We had a beautiful, sunny day, a perfect day for flying!

In the opening rally, the passengers got acquainted with our catchy theme song, Amazing Wonder Aviation. We sang, laughed, and danced our hearts out. We had Captain Marvin coming in to give a talk about how wonderfully we are made by an amazing God.  Our cabin crew and passengers flew to the classes (Victoria Falls) to learn about God’s power over nature. The bible passage is taken from Joshua 3-4.  The passengers learn that God has power over all things.

The passengers propelled to all the different rotation sites:  crafts at Great Barrier Reef, where they made an Aviator’s Hat. They also learned about the Mongolians in Missions Under The Northern Lights. Did you know that only 0.7 percent of the population there are Christian? Also, Mongolia is a desert country, and there are 12 different languages spoken by the people there. That is why we need the Awesome Power of God to help spread the Word to Mongolia and tell them about God!
Next, we had some exciting games and recreation at the Grand Canyon, where the passengers had an absolutely superb time playing Cross the River, where participants had to use paper plates that symbolized the Awesome Power of God to cross the “Jordan River” which was a path drawn with chalk to mark the boundaries of the “river”. This game reminded the passengers of today’s bible lesson, which was about Joshua crossing the Jordan River with the Israelites with the mighty hand of God. They had a really fun time playing that game and enjoyed it very much.

After that, the passengers had a blast munching on a savory spread of snacks, namely a Cauldron Breakfast with Bernoulli Biscuits and Soya Bean Milk.

After a refreshing snack, the passengers went to the Matterhorn for a session of Music and Dance. Today, they learnt the Amazing Wonders Aviation theme song, guided by the enthusiastic Worship team. The passengers really had a flytastic time.
















Later, they went back to their respective classes for the closing bible study. The passengers wrapped up their bible sessions guided by their teachers.

After the last VBS Bell, they all adjourned to the Hangar for the closing rally. The passengers then ended the day with a flying high time of worship and praise.

Postscript: Passengers, please be reminded that you will be taking your new VBS T-shirts along with your VBS Concert and Sunday School open day invitation slips back home tomorrow.
