Children Age 3-9 (Preschool to Grade 3 graduates) are welcome to join!
This summer, join us for an unforgettable adventure at our VBS, “He’s Real!: Faith, Reason, and Wonder”,
Join us at George H. Leaf Park for a week filled with fun, learning, and faith exploration. In this 3-day Vacation Bible School adventure, children will explore the wonder of Christian faith through the lens of apologetics, inspired by famous apologetics teachings. Set in the beauty of a local park, kids will journey through key truths about God—His creation, His design in us, and His moral guidance—through Bible stories, object lessons, hands-on crafts, themed snacks, and outdoor games. Each day will spark curiosity and awe, helping kids see how faith and reason work together in knowing and trusting God.
We would like to ask for an attendance fee for the purchase of t-shirts and other needs for the following activities.
- One child – $25 per child
- Two children discount – $20 per child
- Three children discount – $15 per child
In case of rain, the VBS will be hosted at New Westminster CRC.
