Vacation Bible School July 2014

Registration is open for ages preschool – 6^th grade who will attend VBS from Sunday, July 27 to Thursday, July 31, 6-8:30 PM. Don’t miss the boat! Set sail with us to sing fun songs, do crazy crafts, eat yummy snacks, play awesome games, andmore. Plus, you’ll learn all about Jesus our Savior and His amazing grace! Can’t wait to see you there! To register, call the church office at 678-3312 or Bethany at 269-5970.

Connect Children with God’s Eternal Good News at VBS: Every child needs to hear the Good News that Jesus their Savior calls us, teaches us, keeps us safe, saves us, and provides all we need by His amazing grace through faith. At Gangway to Galilee VBS, you will connect children with the most important message of their lifetime: the miraculous story of what Jesus did for us what we could never do for ourselves. If you can help full or part time, we have many ways to be involved to suit your schedule and interests. Call Bethany at 269-5970 or e-mailbethany.mallory@gmail.com, for more information. Join us for an Amazing Grace Adventure!

Right now we are considering providing sack lunches each night for the children who attend VBS.  Our experiences in past years have indicated that when we provide a meal, we reach more children in the community.  This is an awesome mission opportunity for our church! We need someone (or a couple of someones) to gather the food materials and supplies for this lunch program.  There are many volunteers that desire to help make and pack lunches, but what is needed is the organizer. Please prayerfully consider this opportunity to use your time and talents.  Contact Bethany by or before July 1 so we can plan accordingly. Unfortunately, without a volunteer for this role, the meal cannot be provided.

Supplies needed for seaside decorations for VBS:  (to be returned to owner)  wicker laundry baskets, casting fish nets, palm trees, life preservers, life jackets, pallets, huge cardboard tubes (used for palm trees and the pier).  Contact Bethany at 269-5790 if you can help.
