5:00pm-8:15pm daily (snack supper included) for children age 4 through 5th grade.

The curriculum is Gospel Light’s Son Spark Labs. The theme is “Discovering

God’s Plan 4U = Jesus.”

Each session focuses on one aspect of God’s plan as revealed through God’s word.

We will participate in experiments and hands-on activities that help us get to know

Jesus and God’s plan of salvation. We will discover that God loves us and that

through Jesus we can be members of God’s family and personally experience God’s

plan for each of us. VBS will conclude with a Celebration on Sunday, August 2nd,

during the Worship Service.

Dear Church Family—I feel blessed to be

associated with such a caring congregation.

Thank you for your many cards, and

expressions of sympathy at the passing of my

dad, Paul Owens. He didn’t know any of you

personally, but he cared about the ministry of

the church. Whenever we would talk he always

would ask, “How is your church doing?’
