Summertime means it's time for vacation Bible school. But every year poses its challenges. How can we find enough volunteers? And can we trust them with our kids? Which curriculum should we use? Can we run the program on a reduced budget?
This 23-page training tool can help answer these questions. Give it to anyone who plans, or just pitches in with, the VBS program in your church. NOTE: You have permission to make up to 1,000 copies of this resource to be distributed in a church or educational setting.
