'Hooked On Jesus' Vacation Bible School 2009

This year was our first Parish Family Vacation Bible School, open to all ages. About 120 people aged from a few weeks to a few weeks past 90 years came together to eat, worship and learn more of the power and love of Christ. The theme for the week was 'Hooked on Jesus' and together we explored 5 accounts of Jesus and the sea as he called the first disciples, demonstrated His power over His creation, and his power to save us.  Being based in the Low Country of South Carolina and on the coast, the sea and fishing theme has particular relevance for us.

Here are some of the music videos we used during our worship. We hope you enjoy watching as much as we had fun recording the music and then filming 'Hollywood style' with a green screen. The music is available on CD and DVD from the parish office.

'Hooked on Jesus' was our theme song for the week. Written by Jon Blamire (our music director) and performed by our Junior Choir. A note for people 'from off' - pluff mud is a particularly smelly mud found in our local creeks and river beds.

'Jesus calls me' - probably the favorite song of the children - not typical of Prince George worship. Written by Jon Blamire (our music director) and performed by our Junior Choir.

'If I've got Jesus in the boat' - a slower adult favorite. Written by Jon Blamire (our music director) and performed by our members of our contemporary group.

'Jesus born on earth to save' - an old hymn tune with new words by Jon Blamire (our music director), performed by members of our adult choir. 

'My Jesus, my Savior' - immensely popular song by Darlene Zschech performed by members of our junior choir, with accompaniment from our worship group and string quartet. 

'You are my hiding place' - song by Michael Ledner, performed as a round  by members of our junior choir and contemporary group with our string quartet. Dubbed the Phantom of the Opera song!
