Family Life Events
Elementary students in grades K-5 are invited to Wednesday night fellowship.

This spring kids will learn all about our faith, using toys! We will talk about how much God loves us and cares for us and learn what it looks like to live out our faith every day. Each week there will be a message from a Bible story, encouraging us to grow in our faith. There will also be LOTS of games, laughter and FUN! It’s going to be great!
There is no registration for Elementary Wednesdays. You’re welcome to come to one, two, or all six Wednesdays!
There will be optional gym time afterwards, from 7:30-8:30pm.

Grab your megaphones, lace up your cleats, and tune up your horn. It’s time to gear up for the big game! It’s go time! Whether you’re the type to root from the stands, march in the band, cheer on the field, or hustle to the line, the time is now—it’s Game On!
Kids are under so much pressure—to perform well, to be the best, to balance schedules that are full to the brim, to excel in every arena. From that vantage point, life’s big game can seem like no fun. But when we step back, we realize that the goal is not competing in our own strength. God has already given us everything we need! He’s given us His complete Word as the ultimate playbook. He’s given us Himself, which gives us a reason to celebrate. He wants us to join His team, to train hard, to celebrate our salvation, to encourage one another, and spur each other on. So what are you waiting for? This is Vacation Bible Adventure 2018. It’s Game On!
Questions? Laura Quaratiello, Mindy Lincicome, or Heather Carlson
We need over 100 volunteers to make VBA happen. Sign up to volunteer at the link below.
