VBS – “Be Wonder Filled”
Thursday & Friday, June 22nd & 23rd from 6-8:30pm
Saturday, June 24th from 9:30am-Noon
>> Click HERE to Sign Up your Kids
Vacation Bible School is for Kids who just finished Pre-Kindergarten-5th grade.
What does it mean to be Wonder FILLED? It means you know who God is and who He has made you to be. It means you look for Him and see Him throughout His creation.
During VBS we will help kids discover their true identity in God’s big story and know without a doubt that they belong to the wonder-giver himself! We will make space for God to be our Creator, for Jesus to be our Savior, and the Holy Spirit to be present in every moment.
Volunteer at VBS
>> Click HERE to volunteer to serve at VBS
We are also looking for volunteers to help with setup, set design, crafts, games, food, decorating, registration, and check-in and tear down. Even if you cannot serve all 3 days we can use your help if you can do setup, planning, tear down or even if you can only help for just one of the days of VBS.
All volunteers who serve during VBS will need to have a background check. If you already serve in Early Childhood, Journey Kids, Route 56 or Elevate Youth that should already be complete. If you have questions about volunteering contact Becky DeWitt at becky@journeykc.com
