At Vacation Bible School this year, we’ll celebrate God’s welcoming love for everyone at Everywhere Fun Fair VBS — where God’s world comes together. Together, we will:
  • Meet welcoming neighbors from the Bible
  • Explore the everyday life of neighbors around the world
  • Learn to be a good neighbor to everyone
  • Discover that God’s love welcomes everyone
Love the Lord your God…and love your neighbor as yourself.  – Luke 10:27

VBS Missions:  HELP EDUCATE CHILDREN & YOUTH ON FOUR CONTINENTS

 By giving to Vacation Bible School missions, you can help educate kids around the world.  We currently support over 50 children & youth who receive the gift of learning through the generosity of the Glenn Church Family.  Neighbors helping neighbors!

With our VBS Theme of "Everywhere Fun Fair: Where God's World Comes Together" - our VBS Missions will focus on 4 countries: Cambodia (Asia), Zimbabwe (Africa), Northern Ireland (Europe), and Honduras (Central America).  

If every child contributes $25 to Vacation Bible School Missions, we will have enough money to help TEN more children and youth go to school with our partner ministries across the globe!  Help God’s world come together!  Research shows that education is one of the very best ways to help poor children, their families, and their communities on EVERY CONTINENT!

Support VBS Missions through:  Online giving, cash, or check made to Glenn Memorial UMC, Memo:  VBS Mission.
