YOUTH > Summer Trips & Camp

VBS JULY 28 – August 1
Power Lab is this summer’s Vacation Bible School for ages 3 (those entering Sunday School in the fall) through kids entering 6th Grade.  Make sure to give your child this amazing experience of learning about God’s Word - and Jesus!  We will engage the children with fun, science-themed surprises.

We need your help to insure that we will have another successful VBS.  Look for registrations to come any day and a sign up to volunteer for this amazing week.  Below are descriptions of some ways to help out, however if these are not for you, don’t worry, we have plenty of opportunities.

Decorating Team:  These volunteers transform the Sanctuary and the Narthex for VBS.  This is great for those who have to work during the day and like to be creative.

Preschool Teachers:  3 or 4 teachers are needed to teach each of our preschool classes.

Games Leader:  This volunteer leads the outdoor games each day.

Bible Teacher:  This volunteer leads the bible lesson each day.

Crew Leaders:  These volunteers shepherd a group of kids and encourage them as they go through their daily rotations.  No teaching required, and Jr. high up to age 100 can volunteer!

9th – 12th Grade Summer Leadership Camps at Luther Park Bible Camp, June 15th – June 20th
