Kingdom Rock VBS at Bible Fellowship Community Church
Come join us each night at Bible Fellowship Community Church this summer July 22 - 26 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm for VBS “Kingdom Rock - Where Kids Stand Strong for God”. At Vacation Bible School this year children will learn to stand strong in God’s power with help from: God’s Love, Family and Friends, Prayer, Trusting God, and the Bible.
VBS will help kids discover God’s Word in a fun and unforgettable way. Each night there is a single Bible Point that is reinforced with a Bible verse and Bible story that makes it super easy to remember & learn. We’ll be worshiping in song, making super crafts, having yummy snacks and playing fun games and also have a few special surprises along the way.
Pre K - 5th grade friends; plan now on joining us for a great week of VBS. We are located at 220 Atomic Way in West Newton. To register and/or for more information, please call the church office at 724-872-5150.
