Imagin' Air
Outreach Story

Basel, Switzerland

29 March - 2 April
2005

Large Group at Balileia Vineyard Church

Imagin'Air was presented in Basel, Switzerland at the Balileia Vineyard Church over spring break. A creative entryway greeted the children and parents as they “checked in” each morning. Imagin'Air pilot Captain Bob & flight attendant Madge arrived each morning to start the day.

Over fifty children came, most staying for the full five days. Many of them had never been to church before. The children were divided into six groups. They sang, played together, and learned about having Jesus as their friend. The three objectives were to share English, friendship, and God's love. The children built relationships with each other through their lessons and the group activities they had each afternoon.

The week ended with a closing ceremony, where the children shared some of the English they had learned and sang the Imagin'Air song. Teachers gave out certificates of attendance, and a video of the puppets presented the gospel message for the children and their parents.

It was an exciting week, and it went very well with the help of many from the church. The kids are already asking when they can come back for more!
