FUN TIMES WITH GOD: Vacation Bible School
Looking for something fun and meaningful for your children to do for a couple weeks this summer? Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish will be hosting a Vacation Bible School this July for any and all children ages 3 and up.
If you want to know more, here's some helpful information:
TIMEVacation Bible School takes place July 2 - 13. It will be held Monday to Friday from 9:30 AM until 12:00 PM during that time. Please note that there will not be class on July 4th.
DAILY SCHEDULE
Each day our program begins with prayer. Then our children, who ar
e broken into small groups, will rotate every 25 minutes through different activity stations that include games, arts and crafts, and Bible adventures. Each day around 11:00 AM we pause for snacks and a time to make music together. Each group will also have a tour of the Church during the course of the two weeks.STAFF
We have a staff of skilled and excited volunteers that includes a collection of adults, teenagers, and even some pre-teens.BUDDIES
Each younger child has a “BUDDY”, and the two stay together throughout the entire day at Bible School. The buddy will assist if necessary in helping the child during arts and crafts, will cheer them on at games, will sit with them to enjoy a snack together, and will do whatever they can to provide a happy and safe learning experience.DROP OFF AND PICK UP
An adult is asked to bring his or her child(ren) downstairs each morning, sign them in, and to again come downstairs at the end of the day to sign them out and pick them up.SNACKS
Parents are asked to bring juice and a snack that we can serve to the group. For the safety of all of our children, we request that no snacks with nuts be brought in.
ATTENTION TEENAGERS:Students in Grades 6 and up can volunteer to help the younger children.
These middle school and high school volunteers will be in charge of snacks, games, arts and crafts, etc. If your older child would like to volunteer for all or some of Vacation Bible School, please contact Betsy Fitzsimons (olomcreled1@gmail.com or 203-287-9017).
