Vacation Bible School 2024
Our Vacation Bible School is back for yet another summer and stronger than ever! It will be taking place the week of August 19 - 23 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. We invite all 3–10-year-olds to join us. The kids have a wonderful time learning contemporary Bible songs, meeting new friends, praying together, engaging in discussions, playing games, and participating in arts and crafts.
The theme for this year is Start the Party where the kids are reminded of why Jesus is the good news. He gives us friendship, belonging, forgiveness, abundant life, and purpose.
Each day, we will focus on one theme and Bible story to help demonstrate our key verse from Acts 2:28 “You always show me the path that leads to life. You will fill me with joy when I am with you.”
Throughout the course of each day, we will focus on one verse while bringing the related Bible story to life for all! The schedule is as follows:
Lessons:
Monday: Matthew’s Party (Luke 5:27-32)
Tuesday: Jesus’ Parable of the Wedding Feast (Matthew 22: 1-4)
Wednesday: Jesus’ Parable of the Lost Son (Luke 5: 11-32)
Thursday: The Woman at the Well (John 4: 1-26)
Friday: You Are the Light of the World (Mathew 5: 14-16)
CAMPER REGISTRATION:
At this time, we have reached out capacity but have started a wait-list. In the past, we’ve been able to accommodate several families from the list so please don’t estate to contact VBSBelmont@gmail.com to be added to the list.
Our registration deadline will be July 31, 2024, or when we hit our capacity limit, whichever comes first.
PARENT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED:
Since we are a volunteer-run ministry, we are always in need of parent volunteers to help out. There will be an opportunity on the Camper Registration Form for adults to sign up to volunteer throughout the week. You can also email us at VBSBelmont@gmail.com to let us know you are available to volunteer.
How to support VBS financially:
The First Armenian Church VBS impacts many children of our Christian community, and they, in turn, learn hands-on what it means to give back to the community. Typically, over 70 children attend our program alongside almost 40 middle school, high school, and adult-trained volunteers and educators.
To help fund our efforts, we would like to invite you to donate to our ministry. We have been able to keep this ministry FREE of charge and growing for 25 years solely from the generosity of our community. We provide daily educational materials, crafts, snacks, tailored games, and printed materials, and the costs add up.
Your contribution will keep supporting this ministry and will allow us to continue our mission to impact the children with biblical truths.
