ABOUT
Each June, Dreisbach hosts a Vacation Bible School (VBS) program. Dreisbach encourages all local children to come and hear God's message in a fun way.
A typical night at VBS opens with music and a skit in the sanctuary. The skit is an introduction of the evening's bible message. The children then go to different stations throughout the night which feature crafts, games, Bible lessons, and snacks. The evening ends with more music and a closing message. Perhaps our most famous participant is one of our members known as "Uncle Jerry" to the children. Uncle Jerry often starts off the program with the children, makes sure everyone is having a great time at the different stations, and leads the closing.
2024
Surrounded by water, trees, and rolling hills, Camp Firelight is the perfect location for every Camper’s favorite summer activities! During each assembly session, Campers join first-time camp counselor Sam and Lu (short for Lumen), the lightning bug puppet, and learn to face their fears while trusting in God. Each day, Campers see Counselor Sam face new challenges, from as simple as leading Campers on a hike to as intimidating as meeting a new and wise nature expert. With the help of Lu the Lightning Bug and the Camp Counselor Guidebook, Counselor Sam and our Campers explore timeless Bible stories that show how Old and New Testament Campers trusted God in the face of their own fears and went on to do great things in God’s name.
Through these stories, this program will teach us about people in the Bible who experienced the gift of a trusting relationship with God. In addition, it will teach us to trust that God will go with us, lead the way, share wisdom, to give us peace, and spark joy as we celebrate the good news of Jesus in our own lives and in the lives of others. We will also learn ways we can connect with and put our trust in God whenever we are afraid, challenged, or called to do God’s work in the world and share the Good News of God’s love through Jesus Christ.
