What's in the Bible? VBS

What’s in the Bible? VBS is a journey through the whole Bible – from Genesis to Revelation – to discover the BIG story of the Bible – God’s Great Rescue Plan!

This Bible-themed VBS will have your kids – and their parents! – excited about the Word of God and how it transforms the way we live our lives every day.

Buck Denver ‘Man of News’ is the loveable puppet host joined by his wonderful friends, including Sunday School Lady, Pirate Pete and Clive & Ian, to guide kids through this joy-filled, entertaining 5-day VBS experience.

What does the week look like?

Over 5 days, children will answer big questions about the Bible and what it means for their lives today.

What does a day look like?

Each day at VBS follows the same format, beginning and ending in the main VBS room and led by your VBS Host. In between, kids will break into small groups and rotate through different activities.
