Opening:

VBS White Day2

All the kids will begin their morning together in the sanctuary singing and moving to high energy songs. They will be encouraged to listen for the “point of the day” that will be presented in the rest of their activities that day. During our opening session, one child’s name is drawn to win the “Gold Star” prize of the day. After opening, each class has their own schedule, but all will experience the following activities during the day.

 

Offering:

During our opening time we collect an offering. This money accumulates during the week and then our 5th & 6th graders use it to go “shopping” on Friday morning and purchase items to be donated to an organization helping children in need.

 

Craft time:

We conclude our week with a Friday evening program and carnival. Families are encouraged to come Friday evening for a program where they can experience the excitement the kids have been a part of all week. The kids will sing a few songs and then be dismissed to their classrooms, where their parents will join them to pick up their crafts from the week. Then everyone is invited outside for hot dogs, popcorn, lemonade and other goodies and  fun carnival games.
