Interview
The AltonMo.com field team had a chance to invite the Homeschooling 101 Enrichment Day VBS Director Amanda Thomas to the studio for an interview. In it, Amanda Thomas covered what’s happening, how teens are helping the VBS and developing their leadership skills, and how parents should continue to homeschool their kids and not give up. As Thomas said,
Because in the end, it is worth the toil and struggle to see your kids succeed; to see your kids do what God wants; to see your kids follow God’s leadership; to see your kid be a leader, and be successful.
