Come With Us on a ROAD TRIP!
Embark on an exciting journey with Road Trip VBS, based on Joshua 1:9 – "The LORD your God is with you wherever you go." Discover God's presence everywhere as we explore new places, make new friends, and experience God's goodness together.
Join us in a fun-filled adventure on the open road, taking all the kids (Travelers) on thrilling journeys to exciting destinations. Led by the Navigator and an adventurous pup Scout, kids will learn that God is always with them. Through engaging stories from the Navigators' Guide (the Bible), Travelers will delve into timeless tales of faith from the Old and New Testaments. Get ready for twists, turns, and excitement as they face new challenges and find strength in God's presence on this unforgettable trip!
Road trips are a great way to build strong relationships and create indelible memories. This makes Road Trip VBS not only a fun experience for kids, but also an opportunity for them to strengthen their faith and bond with others in their community. With engaging activities, interactive games, and meaningful lessons, children will have a blast while they grow in their understanding of God's love and promises for everyone.
For ages 3 years to 6th Grade (Fall of 2025)
The age cut-off is August 1. Your child must turn three by August 1, 2025, to be in the 3-year-old class. Children should be potty-trained to attend VBS.

UAMS (University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences) Health's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provides excellent care to pre-term newborn patients in a developmentally supportive and family-centered environment.

6th Grade: Mission Maniacs
If your child will be entering 6th grade this fall, please register them with the Mission Maniac Form found here.
Each day, our sixth graders will have the opportunity to take part in various outreach missions that help others. Our sixth graders will leave the church campus to be able to participate in making a difference and impacting our community actively. Parents will receive a full schedule of mission projects in early June once their sixth grader is registered. Some activities will require them to leave the church, so each 6th grader must complete a Mission Maniac permission slip in addition to the registration form in order to participate in the field trips.
Closing Celebration: An exciting Closing Celebration is scheduled for Thursday, June 27th. It will be a culmination of a week of learning about how we can always face our fears knowing that God is always with us. Stay tuned to learn more about what we have planned for our closing celebration!
