Root Kids in a Relationship with God
Step through the mist into Rainforest Falls, overflowing with wild waterfalls, towering trees, and colorful creatures.
Beneath a canopy of chattering birds and howling monkeys, kids plunge into a lifelong adventure of discovering the nature of God.
They’ll explore what it means to be rooted in relationship with God, their creator, a safe place in life’s storms.

VBS!!! It's the acronym for Vacation Bible School. Each evening of VBS, children TK to 5th grade gather at church for fun with a focus of learning more about God. When we asked our children what they liked best about VBS the answers were as varied as the VBS learning stations. Some liked songs, some liked snacks, some liked the outdoor games, or crafts, or science, or story time. With all that, what's not to like? Come and enjoy the holy chaos of Vacation Bible School. All kids and stalwart adults are welcome.
