Get ready for the ultimate Arctic adventure!
This year at VBS, kids will become brave Challengers as they dive into a world of icy games, snowy surprises, creative activities, and unforgettable fun. Along the way, they’ll be guided by Ollie the Arctic Seal, our cheerful reporter who will help them discover how faith gives us strength in every challenge life brings.
Through exciting stories of courage, hope, and God’s love, kids will learn that they are never alone and can face anything with Christ by their side. Packed with laughter, energy, and meaningful lessons, this winter-themed VBS will remind every child that:
“I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”
— Philippians 4:13 (NRSV)
