A Minute of Prayer Every Day , (for our church)
Think Summer! Plan for VBS! During “Sky” VBS kids discover that everything is possible with God!
“Sky” is filled with incredible Bible-learning experiences that kids can see, hear, touch, and even taste! Sciency-Fun, creative crafts, team-building games, cool Bible songs, and tasty treats are just a few of the “Sky” activities that help faith flow into real life.
Everything is hands-on. We’ll help kids discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life with something we call “God Sightings.” Your kids will also participate in a hands-on mission project that will help kids in our community. Registration and Servant Forms available in the Celebration City entrance or online at www.srumc.org.
