We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

After all that is seen and done – The “Best” of VBS 2016

An impossible task is to pick the "best" of anything. Everyone sees it differently. 

Nevertheless about 5 pictures were picked for each day. However, Day 4 was just too "good" and so a few more were picked. There is a title and ending slide – both appropriately on the sidewalk outside the church. The sidewalk is the gateway to the world we serve.

All this would be impossible except for photographers Elizabeth Long, Cookie Davis and Catherine Hicks. Thanks. This is a combination of their work. Many thanks. 

Most of all thanks goes to Becky Fisher who taught the children during the week. That’s a lot of time of preparation and execution – and recovery from day to day. Also to the volunteers – Judy, Johnny, Cookie, Eunice, Andrea and to those who cooked lunch for the children – Elizabeth, Catherine, Johnny,Cookie, Betty. 

Our main VBS2016 page has all the pictures and commentary of all 4 days.
