VBS: Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School is held for five days every summer
at the Van Meter United Methodist Church.

What Is VBS?

VBS!!! It's the acronym for Vacation Bible School. Each evening of VBS, children TK to 5th grade gather at church for fun with a focus of learning more about God. When we asked our children what they liked best about VBS the answers were as varied as the VBS learning stations. Some liked songs, some liked snacks, some liked the outdoor games, or crafts, or science, or story time. With all that, what's not to like? Come and enjoy the holy chaos of Vacation Bible School. All kids and stalwart adults are welcome.
