Summer
Spectacular [VBS] (June)
Summer
Spectacular is more than a Vacation Bible School – it is an
event! From the decorations to Family Night, everything is
done all out! The week includes energetic singing, funny
skits and videos, games, crafts, snacks, Bible lessons, and
competitions. To allow everyone to attend, two sessions are
offered daily. The morning session runs from 9AM to Noon. The
evening session runs from 6-9 PM.
Summer
Spectacular is held daily Monday – Thursday. There is no
morning session on Friday and everyone is invited to the
Family Night Program on Friday at 6 PM. During this high
energy presentation, parents, family, and friends will
experience a “day in the life” of Summer Spectacular.
Following the program, ice cream and entertainment are served
in the parking lot (weather permitting). Over 500 kids attend
this event. Leaders are always needed. Signups are taken
through the bulletin.
All STARS
Weekends
Let's face it - camp is expensive. A weekend at camp can cost
upwards of $170 and a full week can run as much as $300.
Yet,
getting away and learning about God's Word can make a huge
difference in the lives of kids. In order to combat the
growing expenses of camp, All STARS offers opportunities to
get together and grow spiritually throughout the year.
All
STARS Weekends begin on Friday night and end either Saturday
Night or Sunday Morning. Activities are held at the church and
off-site with transportation by bus. Kids sleep at home in
their own beds. This helps alleviate homesickness and much of
the packing hassle. Best of all, the cost for the weekend is
usually in the $40-70 range (including food, activities,
transportation, and a shirt)!
Each
weekend is focused around a theme. That theme is used
throughout the weekend from activities through Bible Studies.
In the
past, themes have included:
Go
Deeper! (Underwater)
Basic Training (Military)
Get
Strong! (Olympics)
FBI: Fun Bible Investigation
Vertical Extreme (Mountain Climbing)
Dino Decision (Creation / Evolution)
Adult counselors are needed for this activity. Spots fill
quickly. Sign up through the bulletin!
Class
Activities (Year Round)
Each
elementary class is supported by a Class Parent couple who
shepherds the class throughout the year. This couple
contacts, prays for, plans activities, and builds
relationships with the kids in their class. Class Parents may
move with their class through the seventh grade or may drop
out at any time and new parents are chosen. These parents also
serve Pastor Greg by letting him know of events and
emergencies in their kid’s lives. If you would be interested
in being a class parent, please contact Pastor Greg at
724.946.2816 ext. 203 or
email him. |
