Vacation Bible School
Blast off into space on the starship S.S. Star Bucks! Captain Crank and his crew are on a daring mission to transport sports equipment to the planet Recreon where they are in desperate need of playground relief. But the evil Guy Bad is hot on their trail and determined to foil the captain's plans.
Who are the weirdo aliens? And why does Captain Crank find them so annoying? Join us to get the answers and to find out how this can possibly turn into a lesson about Jesus' love for everyone.

For Children
Children who will be 4 years old by June 1 through those entering 4th grade in the fall are eligible.
Kids will learn about Jesus in Bible teachings and enjoy music, drama, crafts and games. Invite your friends to join you for this year's adventure!
Space is limited. Priority will be given to guests, Xenos children who bring guests, and volunteers. The curriculum is age-appropriate, so children may not be in the same class with different-aged guests.
