Vacation Bible School

 

God's Big Back Yard

This summer’s VBS will present: God’s Big Back Yard. Kids, ages 3 through fifth grade, will explore what it means to serve family, friends, neighbors, community and Jesus. Get ready for an outdoor adventure that starts in our own backyard and gets bigger each day as kids take the love of Jesus into their neighborhoods and communities! In God’s Big Backyard, kids participate in the large-group excitement of Backyard Bash, experience God’s Word at Backyard Bible Club, meet real-life servants at Community Corner, plus explore and create through fun-filled crafts, snacks, and games. Just step outside, take a look over your fence, and help kids discover how much fun they can have serving in God’s Big Backyard!

 

June 16-20, 9:30am-12:30pm

Cost: $15 per child/$40 maximum per family (includes a vbs t-shirt)

VBS 2007

 

Last summer, Kids took the plunge at Grace during an exciting VBS adventure: Great Bible Reef. This fun-filled Vacation Bible school drew over 300 kids between the ages of three years old through 5th grade. Kids heard stories about Jesus, made cool crafts, learned catchy reef tunes, played zany games, ate yummy snacks, and made lots of new friends!
