Baobab (bä´ōbăb´´) is a gigantic tree found in Africa that creates its own ecosystem. A baobab tree’s hollowed-out trunk, leaves, foliage, nectar, fruit, and bark provide basic life needs for many different creatures. For two months out of the year, when the rain falls and the grasses are green in the African Savannah, the baobab tree produces leaves and flowers. The enormous tree can grow to 98 feet tall and 36 feet wide. Baobab trees are one of the world’s oldest life forms. The baobab tree serves as a meeting place for many people to gather, discuss, and share stories. At Baobab Blast, the baobab tree is the central figure—the hub of activity, energy, and life. The baobab tree supports and invites community. In fact, the baobab tree is a symbol of community.
Baobab Blast is an open invitation to be a part of God’s Great      Get-Together. Set under the impressive baobab tree, kids will have the opportunity to hear the Word, be amazed at God’s wildlife creations, and be a part of a supportive community.
	This will be a life-changing experience for your kids as you gather together as a community and grow in faith. As the sun rises and sets on the savannah, so, too, will faith and relationships grow as kids explore connections with God, family, friends, and others around the world. Get ready to experience the most amazing community get-together under the sun.
	At Baobab Blast, the critters, activity sites, storytelling DVD, trading cards, Bible Books, and music, create an exciting, energy-filled experience for your kids. At Baobab Blast, the Daily Themes are interwoven into all the activities in surprising new ways so that when the kids are learning, playing, and dancing, they are experiencing the joy of living in God’s community. The VBS is a cooperative program provided by First, Peace and Trinity Lutheran Churches in Galion.
