Shining a Light on Who Jesus Really Is
Get ready to shine at Illumination Station VBS 2026 by Lifeway VBS, where kids will experience the brightest week of the year and discover what it truly means for Jesus to be the Light of the World (John 8:12). Through engaging stories, songs, and activities, children will encounter a powerful Gospel message that brings them out of the shadows and into the light of God’s truth—revealing Jesus as the promised, perfect, powerful, and proven Son of God.
Jesus spoke to them again: "I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life." John 8:12

Mission Offering
Begin saving your money for our VBS community mission project. For some families, even the back-to-school essentials can be a financial burden. This missions offering will help lighten the load for those students and families.
We will be taking up money for our Missions Offering each day during our Worship Rally.
Our offering will go to help buy supplies for Washington Elementary.
We will also be collecting matchbox cars & hair accessories for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes.
Our goal for the week is $500.00.
