SUMMARY:Vacation Bible School 2026
DESCRIPTION:At Rainforest Falls VBS, kids will step through the mist into Rainforest Falls, overflowing with wild waterfalls, towering trees, and colorful creatures. Beneath a canopy of chattering birds and howling monkeys, kids plunge into a lifelong adventure of exploring what it means to be rooted in relationship with God, their creator, a safe place in life’s storms.\nIn addition, kids will form out-of-this-world friendships as they journey together to explore God’s goodness through skits, Bible stories, songs, games, snacks and more.\nPlus, we’ll help discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life with God Sightings along the way. Kids in 4th grade – 6th grade will also participate in hands-on mission projects throughout the week.\nWhen: July 20 – July 24, 2026\nWho: 4 years old (by August 31, 2026) – current 6th graders\nCost: $40 (4 years – 3rd grade); $85 (current 4th – current 6th grade)\nAdd-Ons: DVD: $20; Music Download or CD: $8; Scripture Buddies (includes a set of five characters, one for each day of VBS): $4.50\nYouth and Adult volunteers needed!
