Vacation Bible School (VBS) is a ministry outreach of SJN Church. Its sole purpose is to incorporate themed activities that entertain kids with the opportunity to learn about God. VBS is an easy way to get kids involved in church while providing the opportunity to meet disciples of St. John.
Church membership is not required to participate.
VBS is usually held four consecutive weekday evenings (M-Th) within a few weeks of the end of the SJN School year and runs from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. A light meal is served and then the FUN begins!
VBS leaders and support staff are church and school staff as well as church members volunteering their time.
A typical evening at VBS will include:
- A light meal
- Christ-centered themes
- Prayer
- Bible stories
- Arts and crafts
- Games
- Songs
- Character-building activities
Preschoolers up to children entering the 6th grade are welcome.
