A Bible-era Jerusalem marketplace came back to life at Clarkston Community Church’s Vacation Bible School, June 23-27.
Elementary-school children dressed in biblical attire to learn what life was like 2,000 years ago and experience the events of a real marketplace.
They split up into groups named after the tribes of Israel, and participated in outdoor games and singing.
Making bread, weaving, and playing musical instruments were just some of the activities at the marketplace.
The most popular attraction for the children were the live animals. On June 25, a camel along with several goats visited the church for children to feed and pet.
