Dino Detectives! Digging for God's Truth!
Vacation Bible School - August 4-8th | 9:00 am - noon
Billions and billions of years ago dinosaurs roamed the earth - WRONG. Your kids deserve to hear the TRUTH about our past! Yes, there were dinosaurs, but the order of our past will all fall into place for your kids when Pastor Tom Hall reveals the truth according to God's Word this summer in Vacation Bible School. Mark your calendars now for August 4-8, from 9:00 am to noon Monday through Friday. Kids - kindergarten through sixth grade are encouraged to attend this awesome week filled with great fun, games, crafts, snacks, prizes and exciting Bible stories! Please register your children ahead of time for this great week! Registration forms can be found in the church foyer or call the Church office at (503) 761-1136 for more information. There is no cost for the kids to come to VBS - it's on us! Each year our VBS takes up an offering of "pennies" that will be given to a missionary - this "penny" offering turns out to be gargantuan!
