Donate to VBS 2024

Help us Start the Party!

We can't take on such a big adventure without your help! We need donations for projects, kids’ snacks, and our volunteer hospitality suite to fuel this great big journey. With your donation, our kids and leaders will get to hear about a BIG God who loves them more than they could ever imagine. They will learn how amazing it is to follow Jesus and live the way He taught us. We will collect donations through July 28th in Sumners Hall at the VBS table.
