This Week | July 14 – 20, 2023

July 16 | The Next Gen is Here – Josh Broyles

Synopsis: This generation of youth are world changers, yet so many people look down on them or
only have negative things to say. Instead, we need to be the kind of people who come alongside them, empower them, and set the standard of what it looks like to live for Jesus. Titus 2 outlines for us “what to do” and “what not to do” in order to live uprightly.

Fighter Verse: Galatians 6:2 – “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.”

Please join us in prayer for the kids and leaders this coming week as they learn more about Jesus at VBS! We are so excited!

VBS 2023 is almost here! This year, we’ll be celebrating all kinds of games. From classic tabletop games to strategy games to video games and more, children will play their way through our week of VBS! But more importantly, they’ll see Jesus through the eyes of one of His closest friends and discover that trusting Jesus as Savior and following Him changes the game entirely!

Nightly from 5:15pm to 8:45pm
Open to all children age 4 through 5th Grade (grade entering in the Fall of 2023)
