2026 VBS

June 8-11, 6-8:30pm

This summer at VBS, kids will embark on an adventure to discover what it means to follow Jesus, our Good Shepherd—and that God is always with us. At Shepherd’s Crossing VBS, they’ll explore the rolling hills and shepherd’s fields of Ireland while walking through Psalm 23, learning from the life of David, and seeing how God leads, provides, and cares for His people. Vacation Bible School will be held Monday–Thursday, June 8–11, from 6:00–8:30pm each night. The cost is $10 per child.

Public registration is now open.

Public registration is now open.

Don’t wait to register—every year we hit our registration cap for kids before June (elementary students and especially Pre-k children).

AND—VBS is fun for the whole church! We want invite YOU to be a part of VBS by volunteering! We’re going to need an army of volunteers to help us share the Good News with all of those smiling faces. Volunteers use the same registration form as participating kids.

For questions, please contact Kelsey Smith

F.A.Q.

Why is there a cost?

A VBS experience at Gospel City Church is like none other — we . . . go . . . BIG! We believe in providing the very best for the kids. We also believe that VBS is a worthy investment in your children. There is a $10 registration fee per attending child. This helps us cover some of the baseline costs of snacks, craft supplies, games, etc.

Accommodations for large families: If you have 4 or more children attending and the overall cost would be prohibitive to their attendance, please contact Kelsey Smith. We can set up a family-maximum cost of $30 for you.

 

When is Volunteer Training?

We have an essential training for all VBS volunteers on Wednesday, June 3 at 6:30pm. This is for ALL volunteers (crew leaders, station leaders, assistants, etc.) that are serving at the upcoming VBS. You will be able to pick up T-shirts for you and your family. Please make plans to be there. Thanks!

Can I specify where I'd like to volunteer?

During volunteer registration, you may select which age group you hope to volunteer with, as well as provide any additional comments. While we will do our best to accommodate your serving preferences, ultimately we will need to fill all necessary positions. We thank you for your flexibility.

I attend a different church—can I volunteer?

The short answer — it depends… Volunteer positions will first be prioritized for members and regular attenders of Gospel City Church. However, if you attend one of our sister churches (Redemption City, Gospel Community, or Harvest Lakeshore) and would like to volunteer, we love that you want to serve, too! Please contact us before registering to see if we have positions available. We will also need to obtain additional information and a background check before assigning you a position. Thank you for your understanding.
