Event Description
VBS Information
In a world full of dangers and distractions around every corner, what can we do to find protection for ourself and those we love?
As always, God’s Holy Word, the Bible, provides the answer even as we will travel back to a world of princesses and kings, knights and dragons, and castles and kingdoms to explore just what the Bible has to teach us. During Vacation Bible School we hope everyone is prepared to take a medieval journey to a world of adventure where God’s Word is mightier than any sword, and a great king takes on the form of a humble servant to save everyone and become the greatest hero the world has ever known.
The theme for Zion Lutheran Church, Pierce, VBS this year will be Keepers of the Kingdom (Answers in Genesis), and it will be taking place Monday, June 5th, through Friday, June 9th, from 9:00AM to 12:00PM each day, with the VBS closing to take place during the 10:00AM church service on Sunday, June 11th. All students going into Pre K through 6th grade are welcome to join as participants, and anyone 7th grade and older is encouraged to lend a hand as a volunteer.
For parents, guardians, and interested volunteers, registration is open! Online registration, both child and volunteer, can be found on our church website, under “Educational Ministries” and the VBS tab, and paper registrations can be found on the church website and in the church office now. For the newest and most up to date information, please continue to check this website, specifically this page, on a regular basis.

VBS CLOSING SERVICE:
Reminder, the VBS closing will take place during the 10:00AM church service on Sunday, June 11th, 2023. All students involved in VBS this year are welcome to participate, so we can really show the congregation what we learned throughout the week. If students are planning to participate in this service, please plan to arrive to the church and meet in the Zion gym by 9:45AM, so we can practice and assemble in groups. The students will sit with their class for the duration of the service as they will sing several times throughout.
VBS VOLUNTEERS: Ready or not, VBS is almost here! As in previous years, we would like to invite all volunteers, including group leaders, assistants, and stations leaders, to plan to attend our major VBS training and decorating day on this Sunday, June 4th, beginning at 11:30AM on this date. We will plan to meet in the church fellowship hall to eat lunch, which will be provided, and discuss relevant information pertaining to VBS for this year. After the meeting concludes, we will then plan to move around the church and finish with any decorating that remains at that time. If you are a volunteer this year, especially if you have not attended our planning meets up to this point, please plan to attend this meeting on this date. This event takes a lot of planning and preparation, and so we appreciate any help that anyone is able to offer. We will look forward to seeing everyone soon!
Also, if you are still interested in helping at this point and have not yet had a chance to register, please feel free to let Mr. J know at your earliest opportunity. We still have quite a few roles that need to be filled, so any help would be appreciated.
