VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
VBS
Looking for vacation Bible school in the Shellsburg area? Bring your children to Oak Grove Church, and they will never want to leave!
At Treasured VBS, kids will discover they are priceless to God. Treasured is filled with incredible Bible-learning experiences kids see, hear, touch, and even taste! Sciency-Fun Gizmos™, team-building games, cool Bible songs, and tasty treats are just a few of the standout activities that help faith flow into real life. (Since everything is hands-on, kids might get a little messy. Be sure to send them in play clothes and safe shoes.) Plus, we’ll help kids discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life—something we call God Sightings®. Get ready to hear that phrase a lot!
Your kids will also participate in a hands-on mission project, through a program called Operation Kid-to-Kid™, that will provide protective bed nets for kids in areas of the world where mosquitoes carry malaria.
Hop into a week of fun!
