Grad Sunday! We had the honor of celebrating our graduates on Graduation last Sunday 🎓💚

What a joy it is to watch these students grow into who God has called them to be. While this season may be sending them out into new places, new schools, and new adventures, we aren’t sending them away. They will always have a home here — a church family cheering them on, praying for them, and walking beside them.

Our prayer is that wherever life takes them, they would stay rooted in Jesus, led by His truth, and confident in His purpose for their lives. The world needs young people who shine His light boldly!

Church family, keep lifting these graduates up in prayer as they step into this next chapter. We are so proud of each and every one of them and excited to see how God will use their lives for His glory. ✨

Introducing Our Expedition Leader…

Hey y’all! 🌿💦 I’m Jessica — wife, mommy of two, full-time hairstylist, and lover of serving others wherever God plants me! This summer, I’m beyond excited to jump into the adventure at Rainforest Falls VBS! 🐒🌺

When I’m not behind the chair or hanging out at church, you’ll usually find me making sweet memories with family and friends and soaking up all the little moments that mean the most. I can’t wait to laugh, learn about Jesus, and love on all the amazing kiddos joining us for this rainforest adventure! 🌴🦜✨

Introducing our Fierce Pre-School Warrior! Ms. Sybil

Hey friends! 🌿🐒💦

Let me introduce myself! I grew up in church, and Vacation Bible School was always my favorite adventure of the summer. This will be my second year serving at HGBC, and I’m beyond excited to trek through the wild wonders of Rainforest Falls with all of you! 🌴✨

I’ve been teaching Pre-K for 23 years, and helping little ones learn and grow has truly been one of God’s greatest blessings in my life. I’m also a wife, a mama to three amazing girls, and a proud grandmother to three fun-loving grandsons. Our jungle at home stays busy too with our three furry little “rainforest creatures!” 🐾🐆

When I’m not at church or in the classroom, you can usually find me soaking up the sunshine at the beach or treasure hunting through antique malls looking for hidden gems. 🏖️🗺️

I can’t wait to swing into all the fun, laughter, and adventures waiting for us at Rainforest Falls as we explore the nature of God together! 🌺🦜

Introducing your Bible Crew leaders….

I grew up at HG, and fun fact… Stephen did too! We started dating way back in 1992 and were married at HG in 1999 ❤️ Now here we are, still rooted in the same church family that helped shape our story, and we couldn’t be happier to be back home doing life together at Rainforest Falls! 🌿🌧️

We have two amazing daughters, two pretty cool dogs, and when we’re not hanging out at church, you can usually find us off on a camping adventure under the trees! ⛺️🐾🌴

We can’t wait to explore God’s love with all of you this summer at Rainforest Falls! 🦜🌺
