St Stephen's Vacation Bible School 2008
Grab your lawn chair and bug
spray for a back yard adventure you won't want to miss! In God's Big
Backyard we're not just hiking and camping, we're ready to Have a
Blast Serving with Jesus!
This adventure will take
place daily 5:45 P.M. to 8:15 P.M., July 13-17, at St.
Stephen's, Harrisburg. Beginning each evening at the grand Tree Fort, we
will explore Bible stories where Jesus uses the common element of
serving to teach some uncommon lessons. Kids will explore how they can
serve their family, friends, neighbors, community and Jesus, and they
will hear God's Word as they travel to the Backyard Bash, Food &
Fun, Bible Club, Clothesline Crafts and Community Corner.
*We are pleased to offer
this year, beginning on Monday, July 14, a dinner program just prior to
the start of the VBS program. Please plan to have the children arrive
between 5:00 & 5:10 pm. Dinner will be served in the Undercroft
until 5:40 pm at which time the leaders will escort the children
upstairs to begin their backyard adventure. Child friendly meals will be
prepared each night by church volunteers. Cost is $2 per day or $5 for
all 4 days (per child). Money may be sent in with your mailed
registration or collected at the door. Checks should be made payable to
St. Stephens Cathedral. Children may also choose to bring their own meal
and join the others in the undercroft. Note: no meal served on
Sunday, July 13.
Also, during 1 craft
session the children will decorate either a T-shirt or canvas bag.
Please bring in a one that you would like to decorate. Please be sure to
write your child's name on the item on an inside tag. We will collect
the shirts/bags the first 2 days of the program. Extras will be on hand!
