Vacation Bible School Wrap-up:

In June, the GUMC’s Children’s Ministry hosted Stellar VBS Shining Jesus’ Light! We had 169 children who participated in either evening or daytime VBS. Each day, we focused on a specific Bible point and Bible verse. Children saw Bible stories come to life, listened to music, danced, created crafts, played games, and watched videos about other kids, just like them, who are living out the Bible message.

This large outreach event would not have been possible without the help of the 78 youth & adult volunteers who selflessly gave of their time and talents. These volunteers assisted with decorating, cutting out crafts, leading music, organizing games, serving as group leaders, teaching Bible stories, serving snacks, helping with car line and much more. We are so grateful for the servant hearts that pour into the children of our congregation.
