Vacation Bible School 2026
We will be hosting Vacation Bible School this summer at St. John School campus Monday through Friday, June 1 through June 5, from 8:30 am - 12 noon.
Registration forms are available in the church office, on the bookcases at the back of church, and here on our website. Deadline to register is May 15 to give us time to order needed supplies.
We are in need of at least 25 adult volunteers as teachers and assistant teachers who will assist with crafts, treats and other tasks. If you are not currently a certified active adult volunteer, you will need to re-certify or complete certification with DRE Laurie Barbier. It's a painless process!
We are also looking for 40 student volunteers (Grades 6-12) as Ambassadors.
