All God's Children

St. John Vacation Bible School September 3-5, 2021
That we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.
Romans 1:12

Join us as we explore God's love and God's world!

Elementary-aged children are invited to join us as we spend Labor Day weekend exploring God's love for us, God's love for others, and the good work UCC Global Ministry missionaries do in South Asia. Each year, we will explore a different region of God's world.

Each day we will worship God, learn from a Bible story, explore a country in South Asia with UCC missionaries, learn about a world faith present in that region, and have a lot of fun with snacks, games, crafts, and other activities.

It all comes together Sunday where we will have our final session together, then the children will help lead Sunday worship with the crafts they created and by singing the songs they learned. After worship, the whole family will join us for pizza and a few special surprises at our closing party.

Interested in helping? Here are three ways to consider:

Pray and Participate:

Pray: We need you to do the work of prayer with us. Pray for the planners and their energy and creativity. Pray for the volunteers as they teach and serve. Pray for the students as they learn and participate.

Participate: Do you have an elementary-aged child or grandchild? How about a neighbor or family friend. Your invitation to our church's VBS may make all the difference in helping a child know the goodness of God.
