Baptist Church hosts Bible school The First Baptist Church of Cedaredge would like to invite the children of the Cedaredge area to vacation Bible school to be held June 4–8. Hours are 8:45 a.m. to noon daily. This program is free of charge and is for children ages 4 through entering the 6th grade. The theme is SonRise National Park and the theme verse is Philippians 4:19, “My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.” Summer vacation is coming! And the best destination is SonRise National Park where children will learn to depend on the promises of Jesus no matter what challenges in life may come their way. They will enjoy a great time singing songs, watching skits, creating crafts, playing games and enjoying delicious snacks. But most importantly, they’ll learn about how much God loves them and that He gave us His Word to show us the best way to live. These five days of discovery not only give children the knowledge of God’s Word, but also the opportunity to respond to His truth by living out their Christian faith. SonRise National Park
