| | I was just getting my order ready for ordering when I found out Group is out of prayer bears. What am I to do now?! I haven't been able to find any sort of replacement bear anywhere else. Does any one know where I might find similar bears? I was really looking forward to doing that craft. |

| We're expecting a large shipment of bears on Thursday, May 24 or Friday, May 25. Call back Friday to see if you can order them! It IS a great craft and amazing outreach project. We're hearing the most incredible stories from people using this outside of VBS. God's love is truly being felt by children (and adults!) around the world.

| | Jody, Do you expect the bears to sell very fast again? The church I am connected with definitely wants to do bears, but our VBS isn't until July so I don't think we'll be buying them for awhile. Gretchen |

| My advice to you is not to wait as the summer goes on it becomes harder to find the stuff.
I lucked out, my local Christian book store carries Group and I went in and they tood me to the backroom and I picked out what I needed. They had the prayer bears!

| | To adapt the old saying about voting.... buy early and often! You can always return items or sell them here, but frequently by July or Aug key things are sold out.

| They're really moving quickly, so I wouldn't risk being left "bear." OK, lame pun but you get the idea

| | If you do a google search for VBS materials, you will find many sites that sell items and it's possible they may have the bears available. |

| | Just be aware that many of those sites, like our local Christian bookstore, just turn around and order from Group and don't keep anything in stock themselves. (Some do, though.) Even when I ordered through our denominational publishing company, my order came directly from Group! So no matter where you're ordering from, I'd be sure to order soon.
