Soperton United Methodist Church's Vacation Bible School
Wonder when and where the first Vacation Bible School began? Other than family support, VBS may be the most important "vehicle" to introduce children to Jesus. This group is on the steps of Soperton UMC during their VBS week. How many people do you recognize; name them in a comment.
Others that week: Winners of the Sportsmen's Club fishing contest, Clayton Stephens, Wayne Hooks, John Lee and Winford Smith with Sammie Meeks with DDA sign, Little League teams, Coloring Contest, marijuana at the jail, THS athletes in the weight room, Gillis Farm honored by Polled Hereford Association (they began raising them in the 1940s).
