Family Vacation Bible School

Aug. 1-4 5:30-7:45 pm |
Adventure Island invites families to "arise and shine" with the light of God's love at VBS this summer! We'll explore bible stories with special lanterns and follow maps to learn how connection with God brings the invitation to shine God's light in a world that needs it now more than ever.
Each night of VBS, we'll enjoy a light dinner, learn some great new songs, then explore stories from the Old and New Testament in fun, creative ways!
Arise! Shine! Your light has come: the Lord's glory has shown upon you. (Isaiah 60:1)

Coming Fall 2021...
A brand-new Wednesday mid-week ministry for kids, youth, and adults to come together to learn about God and experience activities that grow relationships with God and others! Each week will include a meal, bible study, worship arts, and games!
We are excited to be moving our children's learning time from Sunday mornings to this mid-week time. We are doing this to accommodate family schedules, create more time for relationships to be built, and provide an arena where Christian faith can be practiced. Sunday mornings will be dedicated to worship and fellowship. In worship, there will be opportunities for all ages to participate and lead in worship!
Look for more information about this exciting ministry mid-summer!
