Dear Lord God,
I pray that you develop the fruit of the Spirit in the lives of all the children and volunteers during our Vacation Bible School (VBS) this summer. Bring the content, logistics, volunteers, and children together to fulfill Your purposes for this ministry.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 ESV
Lord, let Your love fill and direct us as we teach these precious children.
Please inspire everyone involved in VBS to find and express joy in you, dear Jesus.
Let your peace fill our church and the grounds while the children play, craft, and learn the VBS lesson themes.
Give the volunteers patience to meet the needs of these children.
Provide opportunities for us to show kindness and goodness in all interactions with children.
Develop faithfulness in us as we teach and love these children in Your name, dear Jesus.
Guide us in gentleness toward the children, especially when they need to be admonished or redirected.
Work in us self-control, as we teach the children to develop the same in their interactions with others.
Lord God, please grow the fruit of your Spirit in everyone involved in this VBS program. Let all that we do in this ministry bring you honor and glory. We ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
