2020 BOLT Online Vacation Bible School @ GBC

July 27th—July 29th

This summer, we’ll be using a quarantine-friendly VBS called BOLT. With minimal preparation, easy-to-follow instructions, and a video that leads you and your kids step-by-step through each of the 3 days, BOLT is designed for you to perform with your family at home. It’s so simple!

 

During BOLT, your family will participate in fun games that illustrate what it means to listen to, focus on, and follow Jesus. Depending on your pace, you can expect that each day’s experience will last about an hour and a half. It’s great for kids 5 and up. Even middle and high school kids can enjoy it!It’s great for kids 5 and up. Even middle and high school kids can enjoy it! Register below to receive your login information.

 

 

 

GBC Children

Our children’s ministry is focused on helping children and families explore who God is and what God has in store for them. The Bible says in Proverbs 22:6 “Train a child in the way he or she should go, and when they are old, they will not turn from it.”

 

We partner with families so that the children learn both at home and at church the values that lead to full-functioning Christian maturity and the fullness of life that Christ gives. All of our Children's Team Volunteers are required to pass a background check.
