5 VALUES OF VBS

Should we have a VBS this summer? Vacation Bible School is often viewed through the distorting lens of problems, hassles and disorganization. VBS should be the core of every church’s summer ministry to children.

To obtain a clear focus, it helps to take a panoramic view of the values:

1. Concentrated Bible study for pupils and a unique evangelistic tool. More children make a decision for Christ during VBS than at any other time during the church year.

2. Opportunity to strengthen the spiritual life of teachers as they present God’s Word and to increase their concern for children’s needs.

3. A passport into non-churched homes.

4. Increased Sunday school and church attendance.

5. A demonstration to your community.
