What is Vacation Bible School (VBS)?

VBS is a dynamic, fun and concentrated way for the church body to serve together and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to children from our church and community. It is a week-long, annual program scheduled in July. Each year there is a unique and fun theme that focuses all of us on the Scripture and on the Lord.

The focus and goal of VBS is the pursuit of knowing Christ for the sake of His name, for His glory, honor and worship, and for the eternal joy of all who will repent and believe in the gospel.

Who is VBS for?

Children entering kindergarten through students who have just completed 5th grade.

Volunteers that are adult members and youth of members of Desert Springs Church.
