Zurich Community Vacation Bible School (VBS) is gearing up, bringing together children from the community for a week of fun, learning, and fellowship.
The program has been a community fixture since the 80’s, offering a week-long morning day camp filled with activities such as singing, crafts, stories, games, dancing, and snacks.
Samantha Steckle, the Director of Zurich Community VBS, says that the programming is a true community initiative,
Designed for children from Kindergarten to Grade 6, this year’s VBS will take place from July 17 to July 21, with an evening program scheduled for families on Thursday at 7 pm.
One of the key aspects that makes VBS a great service to offer the community is its low cost.
The labor involved is also entirely voluntary, allowing the event to be a genuine gift to the community
At the culmination of the week-long activities, Zurich Community VBS hosts a special program on Thursday evening for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other family members. The event showcases skits, videos, slideshows, and heartwarming songs, providing an opportunity for families to witness the fruits of their children’s experiences throughout the week.
When asked about her passion for directing Zurich Community VBS, Steckle radiates enthusiasm,
As Zurich Community VBS prepares for another unforgettable year, it remains a testament to the power of community engagement, collaboration, and the joy of bringing children together for a shared experience.
