Vacation Bible Schools in Guyana
By Bro. Mark & Liz CarrA few years ago, several ecclesias in Guyana began to organize in their respective areas a Vacation Bible School (VBS) for the Sunday school students and the surrounding community young people. These schools are organized for an entire week, during the day each day, where the children enjoy Bible songs, lessons, crafts and games.

By Brother Bill RawsonOnce again, I have been treated to the warmth of fellowship of my brothers and sisters in Ecuador. This fellowship was more enhanced by the choice of study the brothers and sisters had requested. I was asked to spend the eleven days of my visit in the study of the Book of Revelation.
