Scuba: Diving Into Friendship With God VBS will be presented beginning Sunday, July 14th and running through Thursday, July 18th at Havre de Grace United Methodist Church. The fun begins each night at 6:15 and ends at 8:15pm. Children pre-school age (and potty trained) through entering 6th grade are invited to attend. We are also offering an adult class. Children will be grouped by age: pre-k and k, grades 1-3 and grades 4 through 6.
Each night our vbs participants will begin in the Sanctuary with Sing and Play Splash where we will sing, be introduced to our Bible Buddy and our Bible Point as well as our Bible Story and Verse. Sydney will be stopping by each night to get us ready for our fun filled evening. Following Sing and Play Splash, the pre-school/k group will go to the nursey classroom in the education building to complete their rotations, the remaining two groups will cycle through Bible Adventures and Tidal Treats, Imagination Station (Crafts) and Reef Rec before returning to the Sanctuary for Fin-tastic Finale. We will sing, review our day at vbs as well as see ourselves in the story with our spotlight on vbs presentation.
Our program focuses on developing our friendship with God. We will learn that God is a friend who is real, God is a friend who loves, God is a friend we can trust, God is a friend forever, and God is a friend for everyone. We will meet Tad the frog fish who will help us learn about Elijah and how God helps him through his ups and downs, Finley, the dolphin, helps us learn that God shows compassion to the people of Ninevah, Fisher, the seal, helps us to learn that Jesus calms a storm, Waylon, a whale shark helps us learn that Jesus dies and comes back to life and Octavia, the octopus, helps us learn Lydia believes in Jesus.
Our offering this year will be tissues, large bottles of hand sanitizer and Clorox/Lysol wipes to donate to our local elementary school.
Registration forms can be found on the church website and are also available in the church office. You can either mail them, email them to the church or simply bring it with you the first night of vbs.
We look forward to seeing old friends and new friends as we dive into friendship with God. VBS promises to be the best week of summer.
