So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are citizens with the saints and also members of the household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone. In him the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord; in whom you also are built together spiritually into a dwelling-place for God. Eph. 2:19-22

Emerald Crossing VBS 2026
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BucAUNmXFY8

What an incredible week we experienced at Emerald Crossing Vacation Bible School!

Throughout the week, children explored Psalm 23 and discovered that God is our Shepherd, Leader, Comforter, Provider, and Promise Keeper. Through Bible stories, music, crafts, games, snack and fellowship, children were reminded of God's love and care for them in every season of life.

Our church building was filled with laughter, excitement, worship, and learning as children grew in faith and friendships. We witnessed volunteers serving with joy, youth leaders stepping up to mentor younger children, and families connecting with our church community.

Most importantly, seeds of faith were planted. We trust that God will continue to nurture those seeds long after VBS has ended.

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." — Psalm 23:1

Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand; and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God. Romans 5:1-2

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Psalm 23

When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit …Acts 2:1-4
