High Seas Expedition

Exploring the Mighty Love of God

July 19 - 23 ( 9am - 12pm), Special Family Night July 23
Welcome to High Seas Expedition! In this incredible adventure through God's Word, we explored the mighty love of God, and discovered that God shows his powerful love throughout Scripture.

At High Seas Expedition Vacation Bible School (VBS), kids joined a Crew where children from 1st throught 6th grade form crews, led by an adult or high school-age Crew Leader. Crews rotated through seven stations every day, and the daily Bible Point is reinforced at each station throughout High Seas Expedition in creative ways.

VBS included a snack and a special Bible Buddy.
