The 2026 theme is: Illumination Station!
Kids entering Kindergarten through 12th Grade are invited to the brightest week of the year! It’s VBS week at Monaca UMC, June 15th through June 19th!
While many people claim to know about Jesus, many are in the dark about who He really is. During VBS kids will explore all the ways light brightens, illuminates, reflects, and reveals.
Mark your calendars and look for more details and registration to open in early 2026.
