We love VBS!
We share your passion for seeing children come to salvation through faith and grow as followers of Jesus. A
few of us at Christianbook.com are VBS directors, many are VBS volunteers, and some came to faith through
VBS as a child. After all the VBS decorations are made, the crafts completed, and the songs sung, we pray the
young people in your ministry are more deeply rooted in a firm foundation of discipleship.
Thank you for your sacrificial service to the church. We are praying for you.
God’s grace, power, and provision be with you for a kingdom-building VBS!
