More about our Vacation Church School curriculum:

Super Saints is a dynamic Vacation Church/Bible School (VBS) program designed specifically for children from Kindergarten to 5th grade. It offers an engaging and interactive platform for kids to learn more about the Saints and the path to Holiness through fun activities,
inspiring stories, and meaningful lessons.

Throughout the week, children will embark on a journey through the lives of various saints, learning important lessons about repentance, seeking truth, standing firm in faith, witnessing to others, and enduring through struggles. Each day will feature lively songs, creative crafts, fun games, and delicious snacks, ensuring an enriching and
enjoyable experience for every participant!
