After the rally kids sit in grade-level rows. Find your child and head to the exit — stickers are checked at the door. No sticker, no exit.

What to Bring

Bring these

  • Bible
  • Small drawstring backpack
  • Name written on everything
 

Leave these at home

  • Phones
  • Electronics
  • Toys

We study God's Word each day so a Bible is a must. A small backpack keeps it safe through rec and crafts. Please write your child's name on anything they bring.

VBS sparks real questions. If your child wants to know more about the gospel, we've put together a resource just for parents.
