This Summer! Excavate the Truth

July 18-22, 2022


Grab your pickaxe and shovel!  VBS 2022 is headed to present-day Israel where discovery awaits at Destination Dig. Kids will unearth more than dirt as they dig up exciting evidence that proves biblical events were not just stories. As junior archaeologists, kids will explore real-life archaeological finds that have helped to uncover the truth about Jesus! Along the way, they’ll discover the truth of Jeremiah 29:13, that God reveals Himself to us when we seek and search for Him with all our hearts.

09:00 am to 11:30 am  Children ages 5 -11  Contact vbs.barriecovenant@gmail.com for questions and registration form.

Coffee Break   ...   Wednesday 9:30AM-11:00AM & Wednesday evenings 730PM – 830PM
Morning Coffee Break is a Bible study for any woman, regardless of age or degree of Bible knowledge. In fact, we are especially reaching out to those who are seeking to know who God is and what a relationship with Him involves. Through an inductive study, together, we discover what God is saying to us. There is so much to learn from the Lord in His Word. How good it is to learn together. We are beginning a new study book on Ephesians at the beginning of this new year. It is a great time to join us! Please do! We meet every Wednesday morning at 9:30-11:00. Nursery is provided.
