Vacation Bible School: To Mars and Beyond

Sunday-Thursday, August 11-15, 5:30-8 p.m.
Grace United Methodist Church, 374 Broadway, Lynn

GET READY FOR VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL (VBS) 2019! 

August 11—15, 5:30—8 pm 

One small step for your kids…one giant leap for God’s Kingdom! 

Blast off with the first VBS to land on Mars! To Mars and Beyond will help kids discover the wonders of God’s universe. They’ll become Voyagers on a journey through space, exploring where God’s power can take them. Beginning in your Assembly area-an outpost on Mars-they’ll lift off to distant planets on special missions to collect power sources. Along the way, they’ll learn how God walked with heroes of the Bible, and that God is always with them, too. Add to the adventure with out-of-this-world fun, learning, and timeless Bible stories that inspire kids to give glory to God, who is able to do far beyond all that we could ask or imagine! 

This space adventure includes exciting new music, amazing science, creative crafts, fun recreation, and memorable Bible stories. 

This is a free program, including dinner. 

Child must be potty-trained to attend! 

We are also looking for volunteers to assist before and during our VBS. If you can cut, paint, glue or sew, have some creative ideas, can set up or tear down, we need you. If you would like to assist in music, science, crafts, registration or kitchen, we need you too. If you are a closet actor or actress, our bible storyteller could use your talents – no memorizing needed. We need prayer volunteers too! 

To be part of the excitement at To Mars and Beyond, please call the church office or visit the website: https://cokesburyvbs.com/graceumclynn. You can also send in the VBS registration form on the next page. There is also a link on the church’s website at: www.graceumclynn.org.
