Summer Program & Vacation Bible School



The SOV summer program begins June 22 and goes through August 14. Registration forms are available.



VBS June 22-26, the theme is EVEREST...conquering challenges with God's mighty power! Your child will have a "mountain top" experience using their imagination, trekking through glacier games, singing at base camp, and taking Bible expeditions.


New for 2015: LRCC is providing two different programs this year. The Day Camp theme, "Go Fish," will be offered at SOV July 20-24. The on-site summer theme, "Anchored," will be at El Camino Pines, Luther Glen and Beach Campe. Your child can attend camp on-site and Day Camp and enjoy two distinct programs.
