June 24 – 28

CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

We hope you will join us!

Children age three (must be potty-trained) through 5th grade (just completed) are invited for a week of in-person faith, fun and more! Staff and volunteers from Bethlehem Lutheran (BLC) and First Evangelical Lutheran Church (FELC) will lead stories, activities, songs, games, and this week of faith and relationship building. 

Our goal, despite the persistence of Covid-19, has not changed: to provide a safe and faith filled week of fun for our community. 

  • Drop off time is 9:00 – 9:15 a.m. and pick up time is from noon–12:15 p.m.*
  • Pre-registration is required as the number of participants will be limited to provide appropriate onsite safety and amount of materials.
  • Please make sure to bring a filled water bottle for each child; snacks will be provided. 
  • Remember to apply sunscreen and bring a towel as their home base place each day. 

There is no cost for this Vacation Bible School.

If you have any questions, please contact Gary (faithformation@bethlehem-lutheran.net).

* Late-pickup fee of $5/child/5 minutes late—due at the time of pickup
