Vacation Bible School   June 20th - 24th

  

In this kid-friendly café full of chef's hats and aprons, pots and pans, checkered tablecloths, and chalkboard menus, kids explore the Bible as a cookbook filled with recipes for living out God's word. Through interactive lessons, that are easy for kids to apply to their lives today, boys and girls will celebrate biblical festivals that reveal ingredients for being a follower ofGod.

   By celebrating biblical festivals, they will:

ˇ         Be ready for God

ˇ         Give happily to God

ˇ         Believe fully in Jesus

ˇ         Remember Jesus often

ˇ         Celebrate God forever

 

Please contact Angie at 872-7200 if you can help teach the children this year!  There is lots to do and a lot of places you can help!
