Our Redeemer Lutheran Church VBS Tropical Trek

Join us for Tropical Trek VBS this summer at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church!  

We will begin with a meal at 5:00 pm and move to the church sanctuary for VBS activities following the meal.  VBS activities will include crafts, music, snacks, games, and stories from the Bible about Jesus!  Pickup will be at 8:15 pm in the sanctuary. 

Ages to attend VBS are children who are 4 years old (and potty-trained) through kids who will be entering 8th grade in fall 2026.

Jesus Comes to Seek and Save!

Embark on a Tropical Trek where kids will learn how Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10)! As they traverse fun and exciting places, like a dormant volcano and island caves, they'll discover how God finds us and helps us in every challenge we face.

Five Bible stories will show kids that God is always there for them, finding them when they're having troubles, feeling lonely, lost, hopeless, or not good enough. In fact, God the Father loves us so much that He sent His Son, Jesus, to save us. Because Jesus died and rose to life, we have hope and new life in Him!

We look forward to a tropical adventure with Jesus this August!
