Vacation Bible Camp will take place June 21–25 from 9:00 am–12:00 pm and is open to all children (members and friends) ages 4–5th grade. We are also looking for volunteers to help with crafts, snacks, games, and to be group leaders. Confirmation and high school youth are especially encouraged to volunteer! But we do need adult leaders, as well. Please email Sabrina for more information: smgvasta@gmail.com.

Camp runs all summer long, but LCOS is be emphasizing July 13-19 for children who completed grades 2-8 because Pastor Wayne will be the chaplain that week!

Youth Mission Trip
