Vacation Bible School
The Viroqua and Westby United Methodist Churches have a joint Vacation Bible School each summer and it is usually held on a Sunday afternoon. We strive to make this a family activity, in addition to a learning and fun opportunity for the children. We start with a brief message about the VBS topic, followed by singing a few songs and learning a Bible verse. Before going to the activity stations, there is a time for playing a few games. The students are then divided into groups and go to various stations where there are hands-on activities and additional mini lessons. Afterwards, we gather in the sanctuary to do a recap of the Bible verse and sing songs again before having supper. Parents are encouraged to help with the activity stations and attend the supper.
Here are some past VBS themes:
The Miracles of Jesus - 2021
Singing Songs to the Lord - A Journey through Psalms - 2022
Parables - Secrets of the Kingdom: The Movie - 2023 ~ Here is a link to "The Lost Sheep Movie" that was one of the stations for VBS 2023.
