Vacation Bible School July 28 - August 1, 2025
To register for our 2025 Vacation Bible School, click here.What will children learn this year? Every day, our kids are bombarded with questions: Did God really create everything? Why do bad things happen? Was Noah’s ark real? Why do I need to be saved? Can I trust the Bible? At this VBS, your kids will explore the biblical answers to these questions as they set off on an epic adventure from Genesis to Revelation. Amid sloths, butterflies, river dolphins, and dart frogs, your children will sail along on a fun jungle cruise, stopping at seven ports of call. These ports are the 7 C’s of History: Creation, Corruption, Catastrophe, Confusion, Christ, Cross, and Consummation. Kids will discover how these events shape our world, and they will learn to reconnect the Bible to their everyday life. Prepare to swing into fun as we head out on The Great Jungle Journey! .
What about health and safety of the children? See the health and safety page for more information.
When is Vacation Bible School? Vacation Bible School (VBS) is Monday through Friday. Each day begins at 9:30am and ends at noon.
What ages is Vacation Bible School for? Any child going into kindergarten this coming Fall through age 12 may attent. The child must be kindergarten. We may make exceptions for children who are almost that age, but a parent or guardian must attend with the child to help supervise. Contact us if you have questions about this.
What is the cost? There is no cost. We offer our Vacation Bible School as a free community service.
How do I register? To register click here and fill out the quick form. It is very simple!
Is there an online option? We do not offer an online Vacation Bible School experience. We do not believe we can effectively minister to the children through remote viewing.
What is Vacation Bible School? Vacation Bible School is a week-long series of meetings when children can learn about Jesus through a re-telling of various portions of the Bible. Our goal, as you might expect, is to show the children the good news of how to become a Christian. This good news is called the "gospel." This will help our children discover how they too should obey God's desire for their lives.
What does a typical morning look like? A lot happens in the two and a half hours of the VBS. After enrollment/registration, the first main session is held. During this session there is singing, a skit, team competitions, and a lesson from the Bible.
Then we break into age-based group rotations (science, craft, snack, and games), followed by the second main session with more songs, creature feature, and puppet show, and a Gospel message. Before children are dismissed, we give out worksheets that reinforce the Bible lessons and will earn the children points if brought back completed the next day.
How can parents be involved? The closing program on Friday is special because parents are invited to join in and observe what happens and what the children have learned during the week.
Parents are permitted to stay and watch on any of the days if they want, but it is not required. Registration happens at the front entrance to the building. Please wait at the front entrance to pick up your child(ren) at the end of each day. If the weather is bad, you may come inside..
Who teaches and volunteers at Vacation Bible School? Our teachers have done lots of children's ministry in our church. Other volunteers consist of people who attend Fellowship Bible Church. As an extra measure of precaution, we perform background checks every few years on our volunteers.
