What
This year, our kids are headed to "Camp Redeemer" to discover how to love like Jesus! We will gather in worship, play games, make crafts, and study God's Word together!
Parent & Guardian Volunteers
Vacation Bible School needs lots of helping hands! To make sure we’re covered, we ask that one guardian from each registered family who is a Covenant Member or regular attendee signs up for at least one volunteer role before or during the week of VBS. On any night you volunteer, you can use our Mini-VBS childcare for kids ages 4 and under who aren’t in the main program. We’ll also provide dinner for you and your family starting at 4:45 PM on the nights you serve.

Snacks for children:
All children will receive a snack during VBS, but meals are not part of the VBS program.Meals for Volunteers:
You and your family may enjoy a free meal starting at 4:15 the evening(s) that you are signed up to serve. This is a way to show our appreciation for your ministry to our families and to make it convenient for you and your family to eat a meal prior to a busy evening when you serve! -
Location:
Drop off and Pick up will occur in the sanctuary. For safety, security and optimal traffic flow, we will enforce a one way entrance and exit as you drop off and pick up your child(ren) to their designated pew(s).Security Tag:
On the first evening of VBS, you may arrive at 5:15 to pick up your child’s nametag, t-shirt, and your security tag. You will use this security tag the same way that you would use your tag on Sundays to verify that you are eligible to pick up your child. Please do not lose this tag. If you plan for someone else to pick up your child any evening of VBS, please text a clear picture of this tag to the authorized caregiver. -
VBS registration will open to Redeemer attendees first, but our goal is to allow for space for everyone!
-
Yes! All children must be pre-registered in order to attend VBS.
-
No, parents are required to serve in at least one volunteer role prior to or during the VBS week. Roles prior to VBS include decorating and other preparations or providing snacks for volunteers throughout the event. Roles during the event include assisting in an area such as games, Bible, Snacks, or Crafts, registration, security, and clean-up.
Any evening that you serve, you may utilize our Mini-VBS childcare for younger children (4 & under) who are not enrolled in the main program. Additionally, on nights when you are signed up to volunteer, we will provide dinner for you and your family starting at 4:15. Sign ups for volunteer slots will open in April.
-
In order to participate in the main VBS program, children must turn 5 on or before August 31st, 2025. The activities, content, and immersive environments that we anticipate offering throughout this special week in our main program may overwhelm younger children.
When volunteering, you may bring your children to our Mini-VBS childcare for ages 4 and under so that your younger children are cared for while you serve. They will enjoy age-appropriate lessons and activities and learn the same core concepts as our big kids each day!
-
Registration will close whenever slots are filled, or on June 1st, whichever comes first.
-
You may purchase additional t-shirts when you register your child at a cost of $12 per shirt. Children’s shirts are available in sizes Youth XS-Youth XL and adult shirts are available in sizes S-XXXL.
