We Are God's Masterpiece!
VBS is available for children ages 3 (must be potty-trained) through incoming 3rd grade. We have developed our own curriculum based off of the Scripture Ephesians 2:10:
"We are God's masterpiece! Created to do good things, which God prepared long ago for us to do." Ephesians 2:10
As we dive deep into the theme of being "God's masterpiece!", we will use Bible stories, crafts, games, music and science lessons each day to learn and have fun!
For the majority of our evening, we break up into small groups based on age and experience different stations each night to help us fully discover more about God, ourselves, and each other.
We will start with dinner for your whole family at 5:30p, and then begin programming at 6:00pm, starting together in our Sanctuary. After an opening assembly filled with skits from our staff and station leaders, we will then split up into our small groups and visit each station. We will end back in our Sanctuary for a closing (and music rehearsal as a group). Pick-up will be back in our Sanctuary at 8:00pm. This will be our schedule for Monday-Thursday. Friday night will look a little different, as we will finish our lessons on Thursday. Friday evening we will celebrate the week and end with a celebratory dinner on our front lawn and a chance for families to hear the music we have learned from the week.
Cost is $40 per child. You can pay ahead now by visiting Worthington UMC's payment site and selecting Vacation Bible School. You can also drop off payment by cash or check into our church office in an envelope marked VBS and the name of your child.
We ask you to please complete registration and payment by Friday, May 22nd. This helps ensure we have an accurate headcount for dinners and station supplies. Registration after May 22nd will be only be approved if space is available.
*We need many hands to make VBS happen! Please consider how you may give support. Could you help as an adult chaperone? Or pick a night to help with dinner clean-up? If so, you can sign up for that on this site as well or simply e-mail Ashley Gerard.
If you have any further questions, please contact Ashley Gerard, the director of children and youth programming at WUMC: ashley@worthingtonumc.com
