Vacation Bible School 2025 will be held July 7-11 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Join us this summer as we embark on another exciting summer adventure with Cokesbury’s Road Trip VBS! Our VBS kids will discover “God's presence everywhere as we explore new places, make new friends, and experience God's goodness together."
VBS is guaranteed to be a fun-filled adventure on the open road, taking all the kids (Travelers) on thrilling journeys to exciting destinations. Led by the Navigator and an adventurous puppet Scout, kids will learn that God is always with them. Through engaging stories from the Navigators' Guide (the Bible), Travelers will delve into timeless tales of faith from the Old and New Testaments. Get ready for twists, turns, and excitement as they face new challenges and find strength in God's presence on this unforgettable trip!
Road trips are a great way to build strong relationships and create indelible memories. This makes Road Trip! VBS not only a fun experience for kids but also an opportunity for them to strengthen their faith and bond with others in their community. With engaging activities, interactive games, and meaningful lessons, children will have a blast while they grow in their understanding of God's love and promises for everyone.
