i wonder... VBS 2022
We are so excited to offer Vacation Bible School at Ivanrest Church this summer! We can't wait to host students entering kindergarten - grade 6 (2022-2023 school year) July 25-27 from 6:30-8:00 PM each night. Then, the students and their families are invited to join us for a Family Night Picnic on Thursday, July 28 from 6:00-8:00 PM. Food, water games, fun activities, and time to connect with other people on a (hopefully) beautiful summer evening!
Kids are naturally curious, and when you’re curious about who God is it’s easy to grow your relationship with Jesus. That’s why, in this 3-part series for Vacation Bible School, we’re going to engage kids’ imaginations! Kids will not only get curious about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics — but also about the God who created it all! They’ll hear from early church leaders like Paul, Peter, John, and Timothy, who helped the first Jesus-followers wonder what made their stories unique, what gifts God gave them (and how they could use those gifts to serve), what they could learn from others, and how they could spend time with God. Watch for more information later this spring!
Registration opens May 1 for both students and all students who register before July 1 will receive a Tippy Cow Ice Cream coupon!
