This Summer’s VBS Experience Is Centered Around Our True North, Jesus!

Kids will go on the ultimate Alaskan adventure, with Wild Bible Adventures, and an Imagination Station to foster creativity and faith. We’ll spend the week exploring God’s Word with Sticky Scripture, goofing around with Glacier Games, all while they play and grow!

We’ll start off each day with Sing and Play before breaking off into our adventure crews and stepping into the wild world. We end each day with Compass Closing, where we come back together and recap what we’ve learned!

There is so much to enjoy during this week of unforgettable life-changing faith!

Jesus Is Our Faithful Friend We Can Always Trust!

Kids will experience the ultimate Alaskan adventure where northern lights glow over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and glistening glaciers.

As kids trek the tundra, they’ll explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true in our wild world today. Pointing them toward Jesus, True North VBS shows them that he is a faithful friend we can always trust. He’s our True North!
