VBS Rocks!
Thank you
This year we welcomed over 25 children, 10 youth helpers, and 15 adults for "Views from the Mountaintop". It was a wonderful experience and we are so grateful to our amazing volunteers that created a wonderful and spirit-filled VBS. Owen's twin "Mike" helped guide our children up, down, and over mountains while exploring God's love.
