Vacation bible school Ministry
A Reaching Out Ministry
Bringing God’s Good News to the Children
Not all families and not all children attend church on Sunday or any other time…except perhaps during Vacation Bible School each summer. Vacation Bible School is our opportunity to teach the community children about the best news ever in a fun way. Vacation Bible School (VBS, for short) typically includes Bible stories, music, snacks, crafts, and games and recreation. It really is a fun week for the kids, but it is also a very important outreach and witnessing activity.
WHEN IS VBS?
VBS at Lake Ridge Baptist Church is typically one week (Monday-Friday) mid- to late-July or beginning of August from 9 am to 12:30 pm each day.
2024 VBS Dates: August 5-9, 2024
from 9 am to 12:30 pm
(registration begins in May)
HOW CAN I HELP?
Co-Chair – Creative ideas and organizational skills can be put to use as a co-chair on this effort. Planning typically begins in January/February each year, so we can begin recruiting other volunteers.
Leaders/Teachers & Assistants for Rotations – Each rotation needs several leaders, along with an assistant or two. Rotations include:
- Bible Stories
- Crafts for younger children
- Crafts for older children
- Recreation for younger children
- Recreation for older children
- Snacks (coordinators and servers)
- Music
Administrative – help with registration tables each morning, help with other administrative tasks during each day (photocopying, processing attendance sheets, cutting and pasting, etc).
