This week we’re pleased to welcome 250+ children and over 100 amazing volunteers to Rainforest Falls VBS for a week of faith, fun, and Bible adventure.
- Families with registered learners have already received emails with their VBS group assignment and check-in/check-out details.
- Parents, when you arrive, please enter through the church doors and stop first in the narthex (lobby) to pick up your child’s nametag. Parents will then accompany children into the church sanctuary to sign them in with their group leader, where each VBS day begins and ends.
- Questions? Contact VBS director Aunnee Trampeat vbs@stpaulsdp.org
