Big City,

Bigger Fun!

VBS 2011

June 12-16

6-8 PM

Grab a cab and get ready for fun around

every corner at Vacation Bible School’s Big

Apple Adventure, where faith and life

connect. As kids explore the big city, they’ll

learn how to step out in faith and connect

with Jesus--sharing the message of Christ

with their world.

So faith comes from what is heard, and

what is heard comes through the message

of Jesus Christ. — Romans 10:17

“O Lord my God,

I take refuge in You…”

(Psalm 7:01)
