MAGNIFIED!
Made to Magnify God!
"Proclaim the Lord's greatness with me; let us exalt His name together." (Psalm 34:3)
"Magnified!" VBS will encourage kids to look closely at the details of God’s amazing world and magnify, or proclaim, the greatness of God. God made us, cares about us, loves us, forgives us, and is faithful to keep all His promises to us. We can praise God together! We were made to magnify God!
This year's VBS will run for 5 evenings - Monday, July 7, through Friday, July 11, from 6:00 to 8:30 PM. It is for children who are preschool age up to those entering 6th grade in the fall. There is NO COST for this event. Online registration will be available soon.
