The Alleluia Lutheran Church VBS kids were challenged to donate foodshelf donations and money and exceeding their goals.
wrapped up a great week of Vacation Bible School last Friday.
Kids were challenged to bring in 500 food items for the Hanover Food Shelf. If kids reached the goal, Pastor Durk Peterson, Director of Children and Family Ministry Melissa Macari-Coons, Tobi Roesler and Kassie Bender would get "slimed".
Not only did the kids reach their goal, they surpassed it by 214 items and the leaders got "slimed".

In addition to the local food shelf donation, kids brought in enough money to buy 75 Malaria nets to send to Africa. One net will protect a child in Africa for four years.
"We had such an amazing week," Melissa Macari-Coons said.
