Here is the winning essay:

I am always happy to attend Vacation Bible School every year.

This year, the theme is Jesus Truth Seekers.

My teacher told us a story about a little girl whose name is Nicole. She and her parents went on a vacation. When they came back from their vacation, they were shocked to see that their home was in a mess and lots of things were missing. Nicole’s video games were stolen. She began crying, telling her mother that her favorite game was stolen.

Nicole’s mother told her not to cry because the holy treasures are with God and they will never be stolen by anyone. And as Jesus Truth Seekers, we must believe in him.

For me, I am encouraged to trust more in God. Although I will lose things I treasure on Earth, I will never lose my holy treasures in Heaven.
