Have you felt the joy that comes from giving without expecting anything back?

There’s a special kind of joy that comes from giving with a full heart when no one’s watching, the kind that reminds us we’re part of something bigger than ourselves. It’s the kind of joy that fills your heart long after the moment has passed.

If you’d like to share that joy in our community, you’re welcome to support the work happening in our community. ♥️

The last and final day of VBS wrapped up yesterday. We learned about how God‘s power sets us free! We talked about how Paul and Silas were thrown into prison and while they were in prison, they sang and praised God. It was a great reminder to know that God is always with us, no matter the circumstance.

School may pause for summer, but learning doesn’t have to. Summer doesn’t need to be a season where kids fall behind. ☀️📉

At The Salvation Army, we want summer to be a season where your children leap forward. And we are committed to this statement!

From Summer Sleepaway Camps for a week-long immersive experience that encourages independence and lasting memories, to youth programs and summer music conservatories, The Salvation Army gives children and teenagers a place to learn, play, explore, and stay rooted in community.

We help young minds stay bright.✨

Day 3 & 4 of Vacation Bible School we learned about how God is always with us and God sent a Savior! Tonight we will learn about how Gods power sets us free.

We have had a fun time learning Bible stories, making fun crafts, and eating good snacks!

Tonight is the final day of VBS and we have a lot of fun in store. We have been raising money for World Services to help the Salvation Army overseas and we have raised $400. Which means 3 of our leaders will be whip creamed in the face! ☄️🌟✨

There’s something admirable about the World Cup ⚽. How is it that one game has the power to bring thousands of people together, cheering with one voice? 📣 Giving creates the same sense of unity, as one act of kindness impacts an entire community and lifts up neighbors in need, regardless of their language or background. That’s something worth cheering! You can support the mission in our community and give in the way that feels right to you. This season, join the team that gives with joy and let your generosity turn it into something that brings real transformation in the lives of our neighbors. https://www.salvationarmyusa.org/usa-southern-territory/potomac/

On Day 2 of VBS we learned about God’s promise through Abraham and how even in his old age he gave him a son. Just like God kept his promise with Abraham, even in the waiting he will also keep his promises with us! 🪐

It’s Day three of VBS and we will be talking about Jonah! If you need something for the kids to do tonight and you want to have them join us, we will start at 5:30 PM. We would love to have you. ☄️🚀
