  • Bible Verse: "How great is the love that the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called Children of God." 1 John 3:1.
  • Bible Story: Catch of the Day - Jesus Chooses Peter
  • From the Stage: We met Jason and heard his mother's stories about her camp days, and met four young campers: Sami, Ruth, Beatrice, and Brock. But even these super kids aren't always as sure of themselves as they seem. We also saw a friendly birdcage competition finish with a very sticky ending!
  • Send a Kid to Camp: So many children never get the chance to experience God's great outdoors! Camp Moss Hollow, run by Family Services of Greater Washington, has been offering such a chance to at-risk children from Maryland, DC, and Virginia for over 125 years. This year we hope to raise enough to send TWO children to Camp Moss Hollow for a week, and so far, we have raised $23.75 toward our goal of $1400. Won't you please give?
  • Care of VBS T-Shirt: Turn t-shirt inside out and wash in COOL water. Line dry. Do not bleach. Do not iron directly on design.
  • Other Notes: The final assembly will be held at 12:00 on Friday. Please come and allow your child to share with you what they learned all week. The VBS staff will need to make arrangements for their children's care during this assembly so that everyone can attend the program.
  • Help Needed: As always, we are looking forward to your help in cleaning up on Friday after the program. Please consider packing a lunch, picnicking with us, and then sticking around to help put everything away. Many hands make light work!
  • Reminder: Your child will participate in recreational activities. PLEASE send your children in SNEAKERS each day! Please apply sunblock, if necessary, to your children before they arrive at VBS.
  • Sunday Fun: In order to share with our congregation the great things we've been doing all week, we will be performing a number of our VBS songs at both the 8:30 and 10:00 a.m. services this Sunday, 28 June. We hope you will come worship with us! We would like as many children as possible at both services: please have your children wear their VBS shirts.
