Hero Hotline VBS 2023 - Cokesbury

In the depths of a colorful underground cave, is the beating heart of the hero community, the Hero Hotline Headquarters where everyone’s gifts are valued and every hero has a role to play. Each day at the Hero Hotline Headquarters, superheroes of all ages and abilities answer the call and join the Professor and veteran hero, Super Meer the Meerkat, to provide expert assistance and solutions to Hero Teams everywhere.

When Heroes in the field call in, the Professor, Super Meer, and our team of heroes will spring into action and explore the ultimate Hero Handbook -the Bible- to discover how all Heroes can follow the examples set by a cast of supporting Bible Heroes in stories from the Old and New Testaments, who work together to bring peace, build each other up, and share the great story of God’s love for us where they are and with the whole world.

As kids (called Heroes) experience these stories through music, drama and storytelling, games, arts and crafts, science, and even snacks, they’ll learn that Heroes are called to Follow Jesus, Help Others, Work Together, Listen to God, and Show Grace! And, best of all, they’ll be invited to answer this call at VBS, at church, at home, and every area of their lives.

Check out the songs kids will sing all summer long that will also resonate in their spirit for years.

Sideo sample includes a music video montage collected of all song action videos.

During Assembly Time, your kids will laugh, learn, and have fun with the puppet, Super Meer! Super Meer is a plush meerkat puppet that brings expert advice for heroes working together every day at VBS! Daily appearances with the Assembly leader set the stage for each day's Session and Bible story. Super Meer can also be used during Gathering Time with the preschoolers. Scripts provided in the Assembly Leader.

Each Hero Hotline music video includes motions and lyrics your heroes will love moving and singing along with. The Bible Adventure Video DVD/CD-ROM includes:
* Exciting and humorous video segments for each session that are designed to tell the Bible story in video format
* Prerecorded puppet dialogue featuring Super Meer
* Assembly scripts in PDF format

Disc fronts include links for Digital Download of all content. Perfect if you don't have a DVD/CD-Rom drive.
