What is this year's theme?
VBS this year is "Destination Dig"! Kids will discover real-life
archaeological finds that have helped to uncover the truth about Jesus.
Monday: Jesus Came As God Promised
Tuesday: Jesus Demonstrated God’s Power
Wednesday: Jesus Was Betrayed and Rejected
Thursday: Jesus Died and Rose Again

COVID Precautions
Due to summer heat, we are planning a mainly indoor, mask-required VBS. We plan to move the main gathering from the chapel to the sanctuary where children can be grouped in more distanced cohorts. Please note that drop off and pick up this year will be at the south-entrance steps-the main entrance to the sanctuary.
Other accommodations we are making are as follows: individually packaged snacks, snack time preferably outdoors and distanced, larger distanced meeting areas for Bible study, craft, missions, music, etc. We will prayerfully and intentionally make plans that align with the guidance of health professionals and government officials.
Please do not send your child to VBS if they exhibit any sign of sickness including fever, cough, chills, etc. Have a COVID related question? Email rachelg@woodmontbaptist.com.
