We are Called Together To Serve God!

Theme Verse: "So let’s strive together for the things that bring peace and the things that build each other up." Romans 14:19

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.

Ready to cook up some fun? Food Truck Party VBS invites children of all ages to get on a roll with God as a parade of Food Trucks rolls into their neighborhood for the summer's biggest party!

Matthew 6:11; "Give us this day our daily bread." reminds us that everything we have comes from God — and that it's by turning to God in prayer that all of our daily needs are met. Through both the Old and New Testament stories, kids' eyes are opened to the countless ways God provides, loves, and cares for us while inviting them to join God in providing , loving, and caring for others.

The goal of this VBS is to help children build on the practice of using daily prayer to turn to God for their needs — and also to serve as the hands of God in ensuring that the needs of others are met.
