💪🏋️ Zumba Classes Not Burning Enough Calories? Try the Worship Rally at VBS! 💪🏋️

We get it - there are plenty of summer treats that can add a few pounds. You thought Zumba class would get you back to your target weight. Turns out, Zumba isn't hard-core enough.

You know what is?

Vacation Bible School.

That's right: forget the Zumba moves. Volunteering at VBS is where it's at. Setting up insane decorations that require the acrobatic skills of Simone Biles, keeping up with the kids at a pace that would put Usain Bolt to shame, and dancing to annoyingly catchy Jesus music while you feel like you're Michael Jackson. Now that's exercise!

Have you heard the Chuck Norris joke about volunteering at VBS? No, you haven't, because that's the only workout too extreme for Chuck.

So if you want to get in the best shape of your life, consider becoming a VBS volunteer next year. And if you wonder why all our volunteers from VBS this year look like they're marathon runners, the secret's out.

✨ ...And that's a wrap on our 2026 Vacation Bible School! ✨

What an AMAZING three days we had shining the light on Jesus! From Bible lessons and worship rally to crafts, games, and new friendships, it was a week filled with so much joy.

May God continue to water the seeds that were planted and draw each heart closer to Him! ❤️

While VBS doesn't happen every week, we do have similar activities EACH week on Wednesday nights from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM for children in elementary, middle, and high school. We offer free dinner to children and their families, and we break off into groups for Bible teaching and fun games. Feel free to join us anytime!

Looking for some downtime this evening? Register your kiddos for Vacation Bible School. We still have TWO days left! 🌟

We begin each night with a free dinner, followed by a jam-packed night of songs, lessons, snacks, crafts, and activities. We will conclude our VBS on Wednesday night with a WATER FUN event!

This is a great opportunity for your kids to enjoy a free meal, build meaningful relationships, make memories, and discover God's love. 🤍

Our adult volunteers are trained, background-checked, and ready to provide your kids with safe, clean fun.

🗓️ 7/13 - 7/15
⏱️ 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
📍 2001 N Crystal Lake Drive

We had a silly hat Sunday today, and it was a hoot! Watch this reel to find out who had the funniest hat. Not to give you a hint or anything, but we heard that Billy Ray Cyrus might have a preacher look-alike here at Crystal Lake UMC. 😂
