Current Events in Family Ministry
Join us for Rainforest Falls VBS!
June 29 - Jul 2 – 6-8:30PM
Step through the mist into Rainforest Falls, overflowing with wild waterfalls, towering trees and colorful creatures. Beneath a canopy of chattering birds and howling monkeys, kids plunge into a life-long adventure, discovering the nature of God, and exploring what it means to be rooted in relationship with their creator, a safe place in life’s storms.
This VBS is geared towards PreK students age 4 through 5th Grade. We accept online registrations only - there are no walk-in/last minute registrations at the door. This policy ensures we have enough supplies for each child and the right number of volunteers to keep everyone engaged.
Our VBS starts at 6:00pm and ends at 8:30pm Monday through Thursday. Each night, the kids will sing and dance, play games, learn scripture verses and Bible stories and even a little science -- all lessons that point to how we can trust Jesus in a wild world. We do not include dinner, but a light snack and water will be available.

VBS is more than a week. It’s a moment that shapes faith.
This summer, we have the opportunity to welcome children into a joyful, Christ-centered experience where they learn, sing, laugh, and grow. The adults and teens who serve at VBS are often the ones children remember years later.
