Vacation Bible School

Calling all hikers! It's time to gear up for Upward Bound Vacation Bible School June 3-6 at Redeemer! Registration is open for students & volunteers! 

Vacation Bible School is a highlight of the summer at Redeemer! 

Our campus is full of kids, teens and adults engaged in music, laughter, learning, worship and fun. Our halls come alive with the theme of our VBS, story-tellers are in costume and our snacks even coordinate with our theme. 

Pack up that backpack! Redeemer's 2025 Vacation Bible School is a summer campout. Join us as we gather the tents and prep the campsites. We will be hiking our way through the week, gearing up with the Truth of the Gospel along the way. On this page is everything you need to know.

Things to know before you arrive for VBS  

  • VBS shirts are included in the registration cost. You can pick yours up the first morning of VBS when you check in.  
  • Dress your children in clothes that can get messy. We love to have fun and sometimes messes are part of that!  
  • Please don't send any toys, extra clothes, or backpacks. We rotate throughout the building during the day and it is difficult to keep up with extra belongings. We want your kids to be free of any extra responsibilities. (But diaper bags are welcomed and encouraged in the nursery!)

Drop off and pick up  

  • Please arrive by 8:45 a.m. the first day to get checked in and find your correct group. There will be greeters at the registration tables to help point you where you need to go!  
  • All students must be checked in each day by an adult at our kiosks at the registration table. These are located in the foyer across from the sanctuary.  
  • After elementary-aged children are checked in at the registration table in the foyer, they may be dropped off inside the sanctuary with their group. Your child will be placed in a group according to grade level.  
  • If someone other than you will be picking up your child, please let your child's Group Leader know when you drop them off. The group leader will take down a name and phone number for the person who is picking up your child. Please text a picture of your child's check out sticker to the person picking up your child so they may show it to group leaders during check out. That person will be required to show picture ID to the group leader to verify the correct adult is picking up your child.
