VACATION BIBLE CAMP 2008

Vacation Bible Camp - Hear the music and smell the popcorn! Come enter SonWorld Adventure Park, where kids will discover that choosing Jesus is the ticket to the best ride of their lives. Based on Joshua 24:15, VBC 2008 helps kids learn to make right choices in a world of options. At this theme park, there's no height requirement, the lines are short, and everyone gets a good view of the parade. But hold onto your hats, because it's sure to be a life-changing ride!

MISSION To provide a fun, hands-on, educational experience that introduces children to the great adventure of knowing God
Electives:
-
SPORTS CAMP
- Our "game plan" is excellent athletic instruction, individual attention, and a love for the game in a distinct Christian environment! Push the Rock Camps strive to strengthen the athletic and spiritual development of every camper both on and off the field. This camp incorporates a commitment to deepening a player’s development as an athlete and challenging those areas of growth in creative and personal ways. There will be small group teaching as we breakdown the specifics of basketball and soccer. Competition, shirts, and learning to live a life that honors God will all be a part of a fun and challenging week.
