This summer’s Vacation Bible School at Gethsemane will explore one of the most meaningful symbols in the Bible: water. Throughout Scripture, water shows God’s power, His care for His people, and the gift of new life through cleansing and baptism.
Kids will discover Bible stories that help them see how God works through water in surprising and wonderful ways.
While water can be fun, we’ll also help children understand that many people around the world don’t have easy access to clean water—reminding us of our call to love and care for others.
We look forward to a week of learning, joy, and growing in faith together!
Monday, July 6 - Lesson 1: Creation (Genesis 1:1-2:4a)
Tuesday, July 7- Lesson 2: The Red Sea. (Exodus 14:1-25; 15:20-21)
Wednesday, July 8 - Lesson 3: Jesus is Baptized. (Mark 1:9-11)

Friday, July 10 - Lesson 5: Jesus Walks on Water. (Matthew 14:22-33)
Gethsemane is having a joyful and faith‑filled week at VBS as we explore God’s Gift of Water, reminding us that water is essential for life. With 16 energetic campers and 17 dedicated volunteers, our days flow through music, storytelling, crafts, rec, snacks, and time gathered all together. Each rotation gives us a new way to experience God’s gifts—whether we’re hearing stories of creation, baptism, and Jesus calming the storm, or discovering how we can be good stewards of water in our own lives. It has been a wonderful week full of learning, laughter, and community as we grow together in faith.
