What we do! VBS is filled with incredible Bible learning experiences. Kids see, hear, touch and even taste! Bible points crafts, team-building games, cool Bible songs and treats are just a few of the activities that help faith grow into real life.

Sing & Play! During sing and play, kids will worship with fun actions as they sing easy-to-learn Bible songs. This station is the first one kids will visit each day. When kids come to sing and play, they'll worship with unforgettable songs that reinforce the daily Bible Point. After worshiping at Sing and Play, everyone can start the day with a smile! (The songs song at sing and play will be available to purchase on CD at VBS).

Bible Adventures! offers exciting opportunities for kids to experience Bible stories in new and meaningful ways through live drama.

Crafts & Missions! Kids will make Bible point crafts that remind them of the day's Bible story and point. They'll also learn about the children they will help as they view operation kid to kid video clips.

During Chatter's Adventure Theater, kids will apply each day's Bible truth to everyday life through more hands on activities and object lessons. Then kids will view daily, high-action video adventures featuring Chatter, a mischievous chipmunk who survives a big adventure!

You can almost taste the excitement that's building as you head into big adventures at Vacation Bible School. Each day, one crew will get to help make fun treats that tie into each day's Bible Point. This scrumptious snack will be eaten by all of the crews during their snack time, later in the day.

Game time!  The games played at Vacation Bible School are fresh and fun, plus each game ties into the daily Bible story and point. So while kids are having a blast, they're learning important Bible truths.

Each day, after Sing & Play, the preschoolers head off to their own area of the building to participate in age-appropriate, hands-on learning activities at the Preschool Playhouse. Your little adventurers will also get to have scrumptious snacks & view the Chatter's Adventure video. Preschoolers will end each day's adventure at Sing & Play, where they'll sing and do fun motions to high-energy Bible songs that introduce concepts they'll be learning that day.

Operation Kid-to-Kid

At every VBS, we seek to provide the kids an opportunity to give something meaningful and tangible to children in need.  We call this “Operation Kid to Kid”.  This year our Operation Kid to Kid efforts will focus on Haiti.  We will do this in two ways.

First we will support Feed My Starving Children.  Feed My Starving
Children is a non-profit Christian organization committed to feeding
God’s starving children hungry in body and spirit.  FMSC is efficient
and effective as an organization can be.  94% of the donations they
receive go directly toward the food program.  When the earthquake hit Haiti, 3 million FMSC meals were already on the ground with their
Haiti-based mission partners.  Since the earthquake hit, 6 million
meals have been shipped to Haiti from FMSC warehouses.  M&M’s
that come in a mini plastic tube will be available to purchase for $1
at the VBS shop & drop and during VBS.  After the M&Ms are
enjoyed the tubes can be filled with quarters and returned to Mt.
Olive to be given to FMSC.  A container filled with quarters is
enough money to provide a meal for 84 children.   

Second, we will collect items for an orphanage in Haiti.  The name of the orphanage and a list of items needed will be provided soon.
