Summer adventure begins as the 2024 Vacation Bible School kicks off for kids age 4 through 6th grade!

With the help of Counselor Sam and Lumen ("Lu," the lightning bug puppet) at Camp Firelight, Campers will learn to face their fears while trusting in God. Each day, Campers see Counselor Sam face – and overcome – new challenges. Lu will help Campers explore timeless Bible stories showing how Old and New Testament Campers trusted God, faced their fears, and went on to do great things in God's name!

Your child will experience Bible stories through music, drama, storytelling, games, arts & crafts, science, and even snacks – and learn ways to connect with and trust God. And best of all, they'll understand how they can connect with God at VBS, church, home, and every area of their lives.

This unique Vacation Bible School program invites children on an exciting journey where they learn to trust God no matter what situation life may bring, know that God is always with them, and feel confident in sharing the good news of God's love through Jesus Christ. As Psalm 56:3 teaches, "Whenever I'm afraid, I put my trust in you."

Cost for VBS is $70 per child, which includes the weeklong VBS, all activities and supplies, a T-shirt, and snacks. Your child's lunch can be ordered and purchased directly from the school lunch program (for an additional fee), or brought in from home.

Camp Firelight VBS is not possible without the help of volunteers. Volunteers help to decorate, lead sessions, sing songs, supervise activities, and basically have as much fun as the children! If you would like to lend a hand during one or more days of VBS, please reach out to Berenice Lazo at bplaza@firstcoralgables.org or register to volunteer at welovecoralgables.org/vbs-volunteer.
