Mission Project: Alabama Rural Ministry
This year our VBS mission focus supports Alabama Rural Ministry’s Sonshine Camp, where our youth will serve children through Christian education, academic enrichment, and caring relationships.
To help us “launch” this mission effort, children and families are invited to bring monetary donations that will help provide supplies for camp. You can send cash with your child each day or give online HERE.
We will also have a friendly boys vs. girls competition throughout the week to see which team can raise the most for our mission project!
