Sign up to help out with the 2025 VBS!
We will need more help from parents, guardians, and community members. That means YOU!
For the benefit of our all volunteers & kids, our goal is to provide a safe environment for everyone at VBS.
Volunteers 18 years old & up will need to pass a Background Check before serving with kids at VBS. You will be contacted by a church staff person if you have not already submitted a form at your local church or need to update your current info.
For this reason, we cannot allow Adult "walk-in" volunteers at VBS.
