We are excited to announce VBS 2021 is coming up in June! This will be an event that you do not want to miss! Our theme is “Gotta Move: Keepin' in Step with the Spirit” which is based on Galatians 5:22-25. Kids will learn that our God is faithful and he gives us everything we need to walk with him!

This year, VBS will look a little different. We are planning a 4 day traditional VBS Monday, June 21 through Thursday, June 24 from 6 - 8:30pm at our County Road 9 Campus. Our week will end with an epic, family-friendly, live Go Fish concert on Friday, June 25 starting at 7pm. Haven’t heard of the Go Fish Band? Look them up here: Go Fish Kids Music If your children attend Kidway on Sunday mornings, they already know and love several of the Go Fish songs which we sing regularly during our elementary worship time. You can also find their songs on YouTube and Spotify. The Friday Go Fish concert will be a ticketed event and most likely our seating capacity will still be limited in our main worship center. Tickets will be only $5 each. Information about how to purchase tickets for the concert and also how to register your children for VBS will be coming soon.

Our vision as a church is to connect people to Jesus Christ and to one another. One of the ways we do that is by going into the world by equipping, partnering with, and sending members to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. Studies show that fewer unchurched people in today’s culture are open or even interested in coming into the church, so if we want to continue to be effective in our mission, we must be willing and equipped to go to them. In light of that vision, this year we will also be taking VBS outside of our church walls and into the Findlay community through two outreaches planned for early June. These two outreaches will be called “Block Parties” and will take place at Bernard Park in Findlay from 4 - 6pm on June 6 and June 20.

As you know, VBS is always a huge endeavor. It takes an army of volunteers to pull it off! We will need volunteers for our Block Parties as we share Jesus with children out in the community and also for our traditional VBS at our County Road 9 campus. Sign up to volunteer for VBS here. Let’s join together this June and strive to share the love of Jesus with our community!
