I've been looking for Christ-centered improvements to 'pop' cultural references, and this will certainly stir interest in an "Amazing Race" type event. May God continue to bless your ministry as it blesses others. Keep dancing in His joy! Pastor Lysa PS. In response to another post looking for music - have you considered using praise music or hymns that comes from each area of the world? While I really like alot of music that's been composed for specific curricula, the problem that we run into is that there's no opportunities for the kids to continue to sing the songs from VBS week!

I'm so thankful to the Lord that your ministry was generous enough to sacrifice your time and energy in putting this together. We are using it for our VBS in two weeks in collaboration with an Indian Christian church so your cultural theme will tie in very well. Thank you again, may God continue to richly bless your ministry as you serve Him and reach the lost for Christ worldwide. Stephanie Thank you so much for this wonderful VBS curriculum!

These two monologues were done by a talented friend of our family, named Craig Rodenmayer. He used to be a professional actor with Wycliffe's dinner theater, and he and his wife, Debi, have a huge heart for world missions. When Craig lived in our area, he accompanied our homeschool group as we did mission-minded chapels for nearby Christian schools. Craig plans to record several more of these, and I plan to include them on a series for a homeschool website, teaching families about different missionary heroes. Please feel free to use these videos for M.A.P.S. for kids, or for encouraging your family of church about world missions and famous missionaries. Jon & Ann Please Yes!!!!

Here is my reply: Tisha, So good to hear from you!! It’s exciting to hear that quite a few churches are using this MAPS for KIDS curriculum this summer. Any reports or photos would be appreciated, to encourage future involvement. Also, I had a request for info about FREE mission ideas to teach preschool children: I would recommend looking at Wycliffe’s free materials and lessons for little ones. Here is a link: http://www.wycliffe.org/Resources/Kids/FreeCurriculum/BrightIdeas.aspx Blessings to you!
