VBS is a wonderful opportunity to connect with the kids in your church and the surrounding community! Often times it may even be the first time a family connects with a church.
Find resources to inspire your VBS ministry project in the Church Ministries Resource Center with VBS 101 archives and handouts, along with programs and resources from the North American Division and Group VBS.
If you need supplies or props, check schedule a visit to our lending vault!
Our Lending Vault is a service we provide for churches to help offset costs for event programming. This includes VBS kits, backdrops, stuffed animals and costumes. It is $20 per borrowing trip*.
If you would like to submit a resources borrow request, please email monica.smith@oregonadventist.org. Resources are available by appointment only. Please call Monica at 503-850-3538 to make an appointment.
NOTE: During the month of July, borrowing from our vault is closed due to camp meeting needs. All VBS supplies for July need to be picked up before July 1. Thank you.
*This is a local service and requires on site pick up and return.
