2023 Vacation Bible School

Camp Kilimanjaro

June 26-29, 2023

6:00-8:00 PM

Our 2023 VBS Theme is “Camp Kilimanjaro: An Epic Expedition Through Proverbs”. The VBS curriculum is provided by Answers in Genesis and every night the children will learn the importance and power of the choices that they make each day. To make good choices, the children will learn the importance of wisdom that God provides. As they safari up Mount Kilimanjaro, your trekkers learn that true wisdom comes only from the one true all-wise God, who wants us to be wise! And He's filled the book of Proverbs with wise sayings for us! As they study Proverbs, your hikers will learn to have

  • ears that hear and do the Word of God.

  • hearts that trust in the Lord;

  • tongues that are tame;

  • hands that get to work;

  • feet that walk with the wise! 

Our goal is to create a safe environment where kids experience positive life changes.

Mission Project: Once again we will be collecting items to be included in the Operation Christmas Child Shoebox outreach. The items that will be collected will be school supplies including pencils and erasers. We will also be accepting personal hygiene items such as soap, wash cloths, and toothbrushes.

Prizes: The VBS attendees can earn points for prizes all week by learning memory verses and bringing a visitor. 

Memory Verses:
Monday - Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise. Proverbs 19:20
Tuesday - Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5
Wednesday - Death and life are in the power of the tongue. Proverbs 18:21
Thursday - Commit your works to the Lord. Proverbs 16:3
BONUS VERSE - He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed. Proverbs 13:20

On Thursday night, we invite all parents, guardians, siblings, etc to stay and see what we have learned through the week. We will have hot dogs and snacks at the conclusion.

2021 Vacation Bible School

Ocean commotion: Diving into Noah’s Flood

Our 2021 VBS was Ocean Commotion. Every day our kids were challenged to stand for God in their schools, among their friends, in our culture.. no matter what. Noah experienced the same challenges during the time of the great flood thousands of years ago. Yet, by God’s grace, he was able to stand for God.
