Dear Friends,
God transforms lives at Vacation Bible School (VBS). It’s as simple and it’s complicated as that. At this time of year, we are busily preparing to welcome children—from age three to entering 5th grade—to our Rolling River Rampage Kids’ Camp during July 30–August 3.
I have been involved with VBS my whole life—attending, planning, leading—and I have seen over and over how God meets people and changes them during this dynamic week of ministry outreach. I know of people who first heard the good news of Jesus’ love and saving grace during a week at camp, as well as people whose first real experience of the power of Christian community came from serving as a leader and sharing this good news with others.
At VBS, people of all ages discover gifts they didn’t even know they had. When we gather together, support each other, encourage each other, point out each other’s strengths, and work together toward the common goal of seeking God’s will for our lives…we change. This is God’s will for us—to transform us completely so that so that we may do God’s reconciling work in the world.
We are preparing for an incredible adventure! Come this summer and see for yourself what God can do in and through you at VBS. Invite your friends and family to attend camp or serve as volunteers. We would love to invite you to this adventure!
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you,
Rosemarie Eichner-Raja
Director of Children’s & Family Ministry
