"Our family moved to Bandera about 7 years ago from Houston after we experienced the devastating flood from Hurricane Harvey. We did not know anyone here, and God led us to VOG. The first time we toured the school, we knew we were home. What started out as searching for a school for our 3 year old turned into us finding faith, family, and friendships. We now have 3 children attending VOG and I am blessed to now be a part of this Christ-centered ministry."
