Summertime in Sedalia: Local Vacation Bible Schools

Kids, I don't know about you, but as a kid every year our local church would have a Vacation Bible School. It was always a lot of fun for us because sometimes kids you didn't know would go and you'd meet new people.

For those of you who don't know, Vacation Bible School is basically a week-long special event for kids in local church to have a themed bible study.  You meet with other kids and sing songs, play games, and learn a little something.

In our Community Announcements, there have been several different VBS's coming up.  I thought I'd tell you about all the ones I've gotten so far, so if you want to get your kids out there to do something different, check em out!

The Bethany Baptist Church will host their Vacation Bible School – Colossal Coaster World.

It’ll be held from Sunday June 2 through Friday, June 7 at the church, 500 North Park Avenue, in Sedalia.  Colossal Coaster World will challenge kids to face their fears and trust God.  A meal will be served each evening at 5:30 p.m. and classes and activities follow from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m.  The VBS is for children aged 5 (or Kindergarten age) through Grade 6.   To enroll, call 660-826-8743 or email bethany.baptist@sbcglobal.net.  Visit bethanybaptistsedalia.org for more information.
