Vacation Bible School

Join us June 22-26!

One Incredible Week!

Vacation Bible School (VBS) is a week full of children, teens, and adults singing, playing, laughing, and learning all about Jesus. Our theme this year is Life in the Jungle. This year, children will spend a week immersed among jungle plants and wildlife as they discover our true source of life — Jesus Christ. We'll explore many themes from the book of Romans about life and death, dark and light, and the gift of grace given to us in and through Jesus. From roaming animals to cascading vines, this year VBS will be full of life!

We have two distinct programs offered. At our Mill Run Campus we host Big Kids VBS. This program is for children who have completed kindergarten through 5th grade, with one additional pre-k class in the afternoon for children entering kindergarten in the fall. Big Kids VBS runs 9:00 am–Noon (Session A) or 1:00–4:00 pm (Session B). Each child may only register for one session. At our Lytham Road Campus we host Young Kids VBS. This program is designed for toddlers and preschoolers with an accompanying adult (one adult accompany multiple children). Our Young Kids program runs from 9:30–11:00 am. Nursery is available for younger siblings (ages 6 months-18 months) during our Young Kids program.​
