VBS Programs
Frequently asked questions
What is a VBS program for churches?
A Vacation Bible School (VBS) program is a themed children’s ministry event designed to help kids learn about Jesus through Bible lessons, games, worship, crafts, snacks, and activities. Most churches host VBS during the summer as a fun outreach and discipleship opportunity for children and families.
How do I choose the right Vacation Bible School curriculum?
When choosing a VBS curriculum, churches should consider age groups, volunteer needs, lesson depth, budget, theme appeal, and how easy the program is to organize. Many churches look for complete “plug-and-play” VBS programs that include lesson plans, games, worship videos, crafts, and media resources.
What is included in a complete VBS curriculum?
A complete VBS curriculum usually includes daily Bible lessons, memory verses, worship songs, skits, games, craft ideas, volunteer guides, decorating tips, teaching scripts, and media resources. Some programs also include countdown videos, social media graphics, and printable promotional materials.
Are there any free VBS resources available for churches?
Yes! Churches can find free VBS planning guides, sample lessons, games, and downloadable resources to help make Vacation Bible School more affordable and easier to organize. Free resources are especially helpful for small churches or ministries with limited volunteer teams and budgets.
