Are you a parent of a child that attends or is considering attending?

Here are some frequently asked questions:

  • Your child will be learning Bible-based lessons that are engaging, age-appropriate, and similar in style to what you might see in a Vacation Bible School (VBS) curriculum. Each week focuses on helping kids understand God’s Word in a fun and meaningful way.

  • Children in 1st-4th grade that attend the Letchworth Elementary School are invited to join this program.

  • Your kids will be engaged in a variety of fun and meaningful activities each week! This includes hands-on projects, creative crafts that reinforce the lesson, and special events throughout the year—like an end-of-year ice cream party. It’s all designed to help them learn while having a great time and building friendships.
