PandaMania 2011

 

  JUNE 20-24
5:45-9:00
3K - Starting 6th grade
Our VBS is for 3 year olds through finished fifth grade!!

 

It is time again to make plans for VBS!!! We hope that you will clear your calendar and come celebrate with us!!!

Our theme this year is:

PandaMania 2011

Where God is WILD about you!!

PandaMania at FEC will be a wild adventure into God's amazing and unconditional love. God has a plan for each of us and we will learn that He crafted each of us with HIS own hands!!

 During our Wild Adventure, your child will learn that:

 

God made you!!

God listens to you!!

God watches over you!!

God loves you, no matter what!!

God gives good gifts!!

 

Every activity and decoration that you will encounter at this year's FEC VBS will coincide with our PandaMania theme. We assure you that the planning for this has been months in the making and that our goal is to make sure your child feels safe, welcome and loved. Mrs. Lisa and Mrs. Dana, along with their kitchen crew, will provide a dinner each night that has been lovingly prepared and your child's guide will make sure that they are enjoying themselves every step of the way.

During Bible story time, we will be learning about God's love and how to apply it to our everyday life. Since our Bible times include interactive activities, the kids are sure to learn!!

Craft time is always a favorite and this year will be no different. Our church is blessed to have 2 wonderful craft ladies, Mrs. Bess and Ms. Mary Ann, who have been working since last summer to make sure we have all the items we need to make lasting items to take home.  Be sure to clear out some space at home for these one of a kind items!!

 

Mrs. RaeAnn and her team have been planning some outrageous and crazy games that will not only engage your child but teach them as well!!! Game time is a chance for your child to run, scream, and make lifetime friends.

This week will be different than others. Our focus is on the Glory of God's Word. Please, take time each night and each morning to talk to your child about what they are learning. Reinforce the Bible points explained above. Be open to hearing what they have to say. We are growing a new generation of believers who are surrounded by danger. Let's give them a fighting chance!

 

 

Be prepared - your child will have fun learning about God's Word. The concepts they will learn here will prepare them for a lifetime journey with Christ. We are hoping that you will also see a change happening to you as you watch your child fall more in love with Christ. And be warned - your child might not be able to stop talking about the fact the GOD IS WILD ABOUT THEM!!!! I hope you are ready!!!!

NOW- WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR????

GET READY!!!

 

We can't wait to have fun! Register your child tonight. See you there!
