Vacation Bible School
2018
We are excited to start our Vacation Bible School program up again. This year our theme is "Get on the Boat!" and we will be learning some facts about the global flood God sent long ago to destroy the earth and everything in it (except for 8 people and LOTS of animals!). We will also look at some Bible verses in the New Testament that tell us some things we can learn from this Old Testament story.
Children will be learning lots of fun Bible songs and will play exciting games. They will also have opportunities to win lots of prizes. We welcome all parents to bring their children and to stay and watch, but if this is not possible you can drop them off a little before 2pm each day and pick them up around 4pm. If necessary, you can contact us and we will try to find transportation for your children.
Be prepared to have your kids singing crazy church songs and talking about all the fun they had...but more importantly, this could spiritually change your child's life!

Outside Eden was a seven day Bible School program. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting it, and many members of IBT worked very hard. In assembly, Brother Moses went over the "5 commandments of VBS."
The children got to meet Levi the dinosaur every night. After being awakened by screaming children, Levi would talk to Brother Rocky and share some of his thoughts and highlights of the week.

There was an ongoing skit that featured Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel...and two unnamed sisters, all dressed in animal skins trying to live life after "the fall." The skit would introduce the theme of the message for that night which would focus on Jesus.
After dividing up into appropriate age groups, teachers taught their class on the six days of creation. After a brief lesson, and snacks, everyone assembled for a final lesson of the day. Brother Rocky brought simple messages about Jesus: "Jesus is the Word," "Jesus is the Gift of God," "Jesus is Our Sacrificial Lamb..." Throughout the week, 11 children chose to call on Christ to be their Savior. We have followed up on them and seen many of them in Sunday School and Children's Church. Pray for this ministry, that God would continue to bless it in a mighty way! |

In 2011, IBT restarted their VBS program. We hadn't hosted a Bible school in many years, but with a growing children's ministry and a new youth pastor to help organize things, Pastor Collins felt like it was time.
We called on the VBS Team from Heartland Baptist Bible College. A new team is formed at HBBC every year. The guys that helped us were a huge blessing. They were loved by all the kids and our staff, and they did a wonderful job, setting the bar high for our future VBS programs. |
