DRAYTON – Local youngsters are invited to attend “Roar VBS – Life is Wild *God is Good!” Vacation Bible School (VBS) this summer.
Once again local churches are combining their efforts to organize VBS. Children who have completed JK to Grade 5 are welcome to join the adventure, organizers note.
VBS will run from July 8 to 12 at the Drayton Reformed Church, located at 74 Wellington Street from 9 to 11:30am each morning.
“VBS is offered free thanks to the generosity of the local churches,” organizers state.
“This is a great way for your children to feel a part of your community, meet other kids, and learn about Jesus. VBS is run by all the local churches together and proves to be a wonderful example of how the community of Drayton can work together for the benefit of our children.”
Organizers add that VBS is fully inclusive.
“We are all children of God and we will be ready to love on all children who sign up for VBS. We have a plan in place to accommodate all needs. Our team of volunteers is dedicated to making VBS a space for all children to enjoy and learn about God.”
Kids at Roar VBS will be invited to bring donations to support the local food bank.
On the last morning of VBS the community is invited to join in at 11am for a presentation of what the children have learned throughout the week.
Organizers are also looking for people able to help out for the week.
“This ministry cannot run without many wonderful volunteers,” organizers state. “You can help for a day or two or, even better, the whole week! Any teens who are interested in helping can count this time as secondary school volunteer hours.
“Anyone unable to volunteer but still wanting to help could donate a gift card from the local grocery store to help purchase snacks for the week.”
Gift cards can be given to local church’s VBS representative or dropped off at the Drayton Reformed Church during regular office hours.
