St. John’s United Church of Christ, 139 N. Fourth St., Emmaus, held its Vacation Bible School July 7-11. The theme this year was “What a Mess!” where participants were reminded of the unwavering love from Jesus for our imperfect selves. Vacation Bible School was complete with messy games, crafts and lots of messy fun. Kirsten Almeida was the director of Vacation Bible School assisted by Dave Hengeveld.
