Vacation
Bible School -- Son Harvest County Fair
Coming July14-18, 2008!
We are excited to announce DPC's 2008 Vacation Bible School (VBS) to be held in the evening from 6:00 – 8:15 p.m. Please join us for a “cool” time the week of July 14 – 18 for ages four through sixth grade.
The theme this year is Son Harvest County Fair. Your children will enjoy learning to grow the fruit of the Spirit in their lives through real-life farm activities, crafts, games and snacks.
We need YOUR help to make it a success! The VBS committee is in the
process of actively recruiting energetic volunteers for the following
areas, including, but not limited to: teaching (age 4 – 6th grade),
crafts, recreational activities, refreshments, decorating, nursery care,
parking attendants, or volunteer at large. Childcare will be available
for volunteers with children aged 4 and under.
If you are interested in any of these areas, please contact Candi Young,
Jodi Stewart-Moore, or Sherrie Murphy in the church
office (215-348-3531).
