Gather under the tree
for Vacation Bible School
July 26-30
9 to 11:30 a.m.

And just what the heck is a Baobab Blast?

Well, a Baobab is a gigantic tree found in Africa that creates its own ecosystem. Baobab trees are one of the world’s oldest life forms. The baobab tree serves as a meeting place for many people to gather, discuss, and share stories.

That will be the theme of our Vacation Bible School this year. The baobab tree is the central figure—the hub of activity, energy, and life. The baobab tree supports and invites community. All we need are the children to gather around it. You can read more about it at www.thevbsplace.org.

Kelly and Max Jetzer will once again lead science exploration. Bobbie Beson-Crone will be guiding kids through crafts. Connie Von Der Heide will teach them great songs. And the scripture verses and movies will help the kids put all of this in the context of God’s unconditional love celebrated in a joyful, ever-expanding community.

Sign up sheets are out now in the narthex niche. This is for children between the ages of three to 10 and we are looking for older children who will serve as guides during the week.
