Invite your kids to Illumination Station June 22-26 for the brightest week of the year! While many people claim to know about Jesus, many are in the dark about who He really is. During VBS kids will explore all the ways light brightens, illuminates, reflects, and reveals.

IS IT WORTH IT, YES! VBS is more than just a week of summer fun, it is one of our most important outreach events of the year. VBS opens the doors of our church to the surrounding community. It connects the people of our church to our neighbors, and it deepens our connection within our church families. It’s about our allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us to share the gospel. It’s worth it when relationships are developed, conversations about Jesus are had, seeds are planted, and hearts are transformed for eternity!
Mark your calendar…the volunteer training meeting will be June 18 from 7pm-9pm (light snacks will be provided).
