The adventure continues! After an incredible week exploring the rainforest and discovering the nature of our great God, we're inviting everyone—of all ages—to join us this Sunday, June 14, at 10:00 A.M. for Day 5 of Rainforest Falls VBS.

We'll sing worship songs, discover how God is forever (Wow, God!), hear about God's vision of heaven from Revelation 7 and 21–22, recite our memory verse—"But we can praise the Lord both now and forever! Praise the Lord!" (Psalm 115:18), meet Howie the Howler Monkey, participate in interactive activities, and celebrate all we've learned throughout the week.

Nursery and Preschool Church will be available for younger children, but families are welcome to worship together in the Worship Center. Please note that this is not a drop-off event; children should attend with their families.

We were excited to host Day 4 of Rainforest Falls VBS!

Today, the kids learned that "God is love" as they discovered how Jesus died and came to life to show God's love for us (Luke 22–24).

Our Bible verse for the day was:

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His faithful love endures forever." (Psalm 136:1)

Once again, children enjoyed a variety of engaging stations, including Music Station, Bible Adventure Station, Sticky Scripture Station, and Game Station.

We're also excited to share that our VBS participants collected 769 items for Gayton's Care Ministry Pantry, including cereal, peanut butter and jelly, canned tuna and chicken, and boxes of pasta. Thank you to everyone who donated and helped provide food for families in need!

It has been a wonderful four days of worshiping, learning about God, and making new friends.

But the adventure isn't over! After an incredible week exploring the rainforest and discovering the nature of our great God, we're inviting everyone—of all ages—to join us this Sunday, June 14, at 10:00 A.M. for Day 5 of Rainforest Falls VBS. More details coming soon!

Wow, God!

We were excited to host Day 3 of Rainforest Falls VBS!

Today, the children learned that "God is our safe place" as they explored the story of David hiding from Saul and reflected on Psalm 142:5, discussing what it means to have a refuge—a safe place or person to turn to in times of need.

Our Bible verse for the day was:

"Then I pray to you, O Lord. I say, 'You are my place of refuge.'"
— Psalm 142:5

The children once again enjoyed a variety of engaging stations, including Music Station, Bible Adventure Station, Sticky Scripture Station, and Game Station, where they learned more about God as our refuge.

We are also grateful for the generosity shown through our collections for the Care Ministry Pantry. As of today, we have collected:

205 cans/packages of tuna and chicken
79 boxes of cereal
129 jars of peanut butter and jelly
56 packages of pasta

Total collected: 469 items!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed and helped support families in our community. Tomorrow's collection item is pasta.

We can't wait for Day 4 tomorrow and the exciting conclusion of Day 5 during our 10:00 a.m. VBS Sunday Worship Service!

We were excited to host Day 2 of our Rainforest Falls VBS! The kids learned that "God knows everything" as they explored the story of David and reflected on Psalm 139.

Our Bible verse for the day was:

"O Lord, You have examined my heart and know everything about me." — Psalm 139:1

Once again, the children enjoyed a variety of engaging stations, including Music Station, Bible Adventure Station, Sticky Scripture Station, and Game Station.

As part of our missions focus, we are collecting different food items each day to support our church's Care Ministry Pantry. As of today, we have collected 79 boxes of cereal and 129 jars of peanut butter and jelly! Tomorrow's collection item will be canned tuna and chicken.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed and helped provide food for families in need. It was another wonderful day of learning, worship, fun, and serving others. We can't wait for Day 3!

Today was our first day of Rainforest Falls VBS! Our Bible Point was “God Is Our Creator,” as we explored the story of God creating the world in Genesis 1.

Our Bible verse for the day was Psalm 103:22:
"Praise the Lord, everything he has created, everything in all his kingdom."

Children learned about God's amazing creation and how everything around us reflects His power, creativity, and love.

As part of our missions focus, we collected cereal donations to support the church's Care Ministry Pantry. Thank you to everyone who contributed and helped provide food for families in need.

Throughout the day, kids enjoyed a variety of exciting stations, including:

Music Station
Bible Adventure Station
Sticky Scripture Station
Game Station

It was a wonderful first day filled with learning, worship, fun, and fellowship. We look forward to another great day at Rainforest Falls VBS tomorrow!
