Weird Animals VBS – Sundays, June 1 – August 31
At Christ, we spread out a Vacation Bible School curriculum over the course of the summer and in 2014, our theme is “Weird Animals: Where Jesus’ Love is One of a Kind.” Each Sunday morning (9:30-10:30 am) through August 31, children age 3 – Grade 5 will experience that nothing compares to the extraordinary love of Jesus. They’ll sing and serve, and spend time at stations and act in dramas, do experiments, eat snacks, make crafts, play games, and watch videos.
The offerings that the children bring for the VBS hour will go toward the work that Food for the Poor, Inc. is doing “Saving Lives… Transforming Communities… Renewing Hope” in Latin America and the Caribbean.
This summer, the Youth Bible Study will be discussing The History Channel’s The Bible series, and helping with VBS Games and Drama. In September after Rally Day, our young people will move up to their next grade level in Kingdom Quest or Youth Bible Study. Please contact Jordan for details.
