CREATIVE LEGOS

 

CREATIVE LEGOS

Kids love Legos. Especially an abundance of Legos. An abundance is exactly what is available when a Lego Vacation Bible School is held in Germany.

The Luke Snell family has been ministering in Ingelheim, Germany, for the past four years. During three of those years they have conducted a Lego Vacation Bible School. A woman by the name of Crystal Buegel provides the plethora of pieces capable of creating a small city. Each day the students, ages seven through twelve, work on assembling the pieces into a city of which they can be proud.

Legos provide the attraction. During the course of each day, the Gospel provides the spiritual food the Snells have gone to Germany to share. Lego-themed games and crafts fill out the rest of the time.

Once the city is complete, the students choose a name for their creation and elect a mayor. “Their parents are invited to hear the songs the kids learned, hear about our church, and then tour the city,” says Luke. The ladies of the church in Ingelheim provide cake to eat, and the Snells and others from the church use the opportunity to make friends, sitting and visiting with those who come.

Kids love Legos. Parents love their kids. And the Snells pray that the week will continue to result in both children and parents coming to love the Lord.
