VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
VACANT, Coordinator

Goals/Objectives
Summer break is a special time that offers our Church family an opportunity for Bible study and evangelistic outreach. Vacation Bible School is scheduled each year at least 2 full weeks after the school year ends. Mt. Vernon's Vacation Bible School (V.B.S.) starts on Wednesday and ends on Friday (3 days - 2 1/2 hours per day; 5:30-8:00 p.m.). VBS is for all ages from babies to adult with classes for 6 age groups. Goals for V.B.S. include a stimulating Bible-based program for the children, having a program that is entertaining and enlightening, and offering the adults of the church an opportunity to become involved in a hands-on approach to the Christian education of our youth.   


No experience is necessary only enthusiasm and a desire to be involved. Any adult or young adult can become a part of this wonderful experience. We need teachers, aides, helpers, artists, actors, vocalists, dancers, organizers, greeters, musicians and snack coordinators, in short, if you are willing to help, we have a place for you. We need volunteers - will you help?
