Vacation Bible School 2023

June 5 – 9 from 5 – 8 p.m.

We had a blast at “Rocky Railway: Jesus’s Power Pulls Us Through” last August, and can’t wait for another week of growing in faith with our VBS kids! Our theme for 2023 is “Stellar: Shine Jesus’s Light.”  Kids will be launched on a cosmic quest where they’ll have a blast shining Jesus’s light to the world! Our VBS is open to members and non-members, so feel free to invite your friends.

What ages is Vacation Bible School for?

Vacation Bible School is for children 3 years old through those completing 5th grade. Older children, youth, and adults are welcome to volunteer.

What is Vacation Bible School like?

Everyone begins and ends a night at VBS together in the sanctuary with songs, skits, videos, etc. Our 3 year olds through kindergarteners then participate in the Preschool VBS program, where the activities are all targeted toward their age group. Children who are in First Grade through Fifth Grade are divided into small groups which then travel to different stations.

What is the schedule for the evening sessions on 8/12 and 8/13?

  • 5:00-5:15    Drop-off
  • 5:15-5:45    Dinner*
