FAQS

Check out some commonly asked questions below, or contact our Next Gen Director, Andrew, for more information.
What is VBS?
VBS stands for “Vacation Bible School.” It is a four-day kids program that includes singing, Bible stories, science experiments, crafts, snacks, games, and more. 

What ages can sign up for VBS?
Our age limits for VBS are 3 years old to children who complete 5th grade this spring. Please note that children must be potty-trained to register. Preschoolers (3-5yrs) will have their own age-appropriate programming. 
What if my child is unable to attend all 4 days of VBS?
No worries! We know how busy family life can get in the summer. No matter how many days your child is able to attend, we guarantee they'll have an incredible experience as part of VBS!
Does my child need to bring anything?
No! Just make sure that your child is dressed appropriately for outside games. 
Do I drop my child off or stay with them during VBS?
We ask parents to drop off their children and return to the church for pickup. Don’t worry—our background-checked leaders will ensure a safe and fun environment for your child.
What if my child needs me during VBS?
As part of the registration process, we ask parents to provide contact information. We will contact you if your child needs you for any reason.
What safety policies and procedures do you have in place?
All volunteers are background-checked and trained to maintain your child’s safety at all times. Our safety team will be stationed throughout the building, and our closing team will ensure that each child is picked up by an authorized adult.
