WHAT DOES A DAY AT VBS LOOK LIKE?

LISTED BELOW ARE ALL THE THINGS YOUR CHILD WILL BE DOING THROUGHOUT THE DAY! THE ORDER OF THINGS VARIES BY GRADE.

EARLY MORNING LINEUP

Need to drop your kids off early? Join us for early morning lineup on the AWANA Square at 8:15am. Kids will enjoy group games while they wait for VBS to begin and will earn tickets they can turn in at the end of the VBS day for candy or prizes. 

SING AND PLAY WORSHIP

Kids will join us for worship at the beginning of VBS from 9:00–9:20am and again at the end of the day from 11:35am–12:00pm. During this time, kids will come together to sing praises to God and hear a short worship teaching that introduces the day’s lesson, the VBS Buddy, and the Verse of the Day.  Parents are welcome to join us for worship! 

MISSION STATION

Kids will hear about our VBS missionary and learn about the mission work they are doing. They will hear how missionaries are sharing the Gospel around the world and will learn about the mission project they are raising money for this year.

GAMES/SNACK

At Games and Snack, the kids will get to enjoy fun activities that help reinforce the Bible point of the day while spending time with their friends. During snack, they can chat with their group leaders and enjoy a time of fellowship. 

STICKY SCRIPTURE

At this station, kids will connect each day with the Bible Verse of the Day using their bodies, minds, and hearts.  Through movement, laughter, and play, kids will explore what each verse means and how it can be applied to their everyday lives in practical ways. 

CRAFTS

Kids will create a craft that connects with either the Bible point or the Verse of the Day. They will have time to be creative, enjoy talking with one another, and connect with their leaders as they work. 

BIBLE ADVENTURES

Kids will have the opportunity to hear the Bible lesson of the day and participate in the story with the help of the Bible Buddy. They will have group discussion time with their leaders to explore what they’ve learned. 

VBS 2026 MISSIONARY

CARE PREGNANCY CENTER

Bio
Care Pregnancy Center has been serving Tulare County for over 40 years. We provide free pregnancy-related medical services, including parenting, labor and delivery and healthy relationships classes.
 
Our Vision 
We envision a community with people who value themselves and the unborn lives they're carrying, who receive the grace to live wholly, and who are empowered to build better futures for their families and the generations to come.

Project: Family for Life
Building a community who values life and family takes time to fortify trust and relationships. CPRC does this through parenting classes, healthy relationships sessions, labor & delivery classes, and post natal support.

Raising funds for curriculum, bible study materials, books and baby items (baby bundles) is a way to help CPRC to connect our clients and their families to a church in our local community. Our clients are always amazed that people they don't know are willing to give them care, support and love. It's like giving them a big hug and saying "I see you, and I care". 

VBS FAQ's

Where do I pick up my child?
Pick-up will take place in the sanctuary following closing worship. For safety purposes, children may not leave until a parent or guardian signs them out. There will be separate sign-out sheets for each grade, so if you have more than one child, please be sure to sign out each child at their individual grade level.
How early can I drop off my child?
Early Morning Drop-Off begins at 8:15am on the AWANA Square. Kids will enjoy group games while they wait for VBS to begin and will earn tickets they can turn in at the end of the VBS day for candy or prizes.
Can I invite a friend?
Yes! Feel free to invite your friends. Kids are grouped by grade level, and all children attending VBS must have a completed registration form submitted by a parent or guardian before participating. 
Can we sign up the week of VBS?
Yes! We offer walk-up registration every day of VBS. If you want your child to be placed in a group with their friends, we recommend pre-registering to help us plan groups in advance.
Do you have safety plans in place?
Absolutely. All our volunteers have completed the application process, mandated reporter training, and background checks/live scans. They also attend our VBS volunteer training, which includes additional safety instructions for the week. We also have a safety team on site each day to ensure a secure and fun environment for all children.
What age groups are offered at VBS?
VBS is available for kids entering Kindergarten through 6th grade. Nursery through Pre-K programs are initially reserved for the kids of volunteers. Once all volunteer spots are filled, any remaining spaces for ages 3–Pre-K will be open to the public, based on availability. Registration for the 3's-Pre-K will open to the public May 20.
What time does VBS start?
VBS is 9:00am-12:00pm, with early drop off starting at 8:15am.
