VBS decorating has begun! We still need lots of helping hands to get everything ready over the next two weeks. Come by any day and we’ll put you to work. All of the decorations and supplies are here, we just need help getting it all hung and set up.

And don’t worry, you do not have to climb a ladder to help! There are lots of decorations that go on the walls and plenty of jobs for everyone. Even if you only have a little time to spare, we would love to have you join us.

Come help make Snowball Mountain Challenge amazing for the kids who will be joining us!!!

Want to help support Vacation Bible School and our mission projects this summer? We have created an Amazon Wishlist with needed items for VBS!

Many of the items will be used for missions, especially Birthday Party Kits that our children will assemble during VBS. These kits will be donated to Epworth Children’s Home to help children and families across South Carolina celebrate birthdays in a special way.

Epworth is a ministry of the South Carolina United Methodist Church that supports foster families, kinship care, and provides residential care for children going through difficult times.

We would love your support! Please consider purchasing an item from the wishlist and helping us make a difference in the lives of children and families across our state.

We still need a few more volunteers to help make VBS an amazing week for our kids! We are currently looking for:

⭐ 2 Lead Teachers for 4K
⭐ 2 Classroom Assistants

All curriculum and supplies are provided — you just bring your love for kids and willingness to serve! Volunteers primarily help shepherd children to their different activities throughout the day.

VBS will be June 15-19 from 9:00am-12:30pm.

VBS is such a fun and meaningful week where children learn about Jesus, build friendships, and make lasting memories. If you are interested in serving or would like more information, please contact Emily at [email protected].

Thank you for helping us share the love of Christ with our children and families! 💙
