Kids to Learn God’s Rock Solid Truth at Vacation Bible School

Monday, June 17 through Friday, June 21
9am–Noon

This June, we will welcome kids from Beaver County and beyond to Breaker Rock Beach, where we celebrate God’s rock solid truth in a world of shifting sands!

Our anchoring Scripture verse for this year’s Vacation Bible School (VBS) is Romans 12:2:

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — his good, pleasing, and perfect will.

VBS is scheduled for Monday, June 17 through Friday, June 21, from 9am to Noon each day. We’ll have Bible studies, games, crafts, and more for children, youth, and teens entering Grades K-12 in the fall.

Also, a Family Day will be held on Sunday, June 23rd, where parents and friends can celebrate with the kids all they have accomplished throughout the week. Family Day will start with worship at 11am and continue with lunch and a wrap-up party in the Carey Community Center.

This event is free and open to all K-12 kids!

Please reach out to Jen or Tina at kids@monacachurch.org or (724) 775-6702 with any questions or comments. Or use the button below to register now.

Registration is open from now through Sunday, June 9th.

We are also recruiting volunteers to help with Bible lessons, games, crafts, snacks, etc. for all age groups during VBS. Help with the June 23rd Family Day is needed as well. See Jen or Tina with questions about volunteering or to sign up. (Volunteers can also use the Register Now links above to sign up.)

We would greatly appreciate your help spreading the word about Vacation Bible School. We have created two types of flyers for your convenience:

8.5″ x 11″ Flyer for 2024 VBS at MUMC

4x Flyers on 8.5″ x 11″ paper for 2024 VBS at MUMC

You can also invite and share the event on Facebook!

Together, we can spread the Good News of God’s rock solid truth!
