Welcome to

GOAL: Go Out And Love

Vacation Bible Camp 2026

We had a great time on our safari adventure finding the Joy, Courage, Confidence, and Peace of Jesus. We made new friends, sang fun songs, played together, and grew in faith. We ended with a Wild Kingdom Day at the Kansas City Zoo for families. Check out the recap video, revisit each days lessons and songs and check out how we did on our mission collections.

VBC KICKOFF AT STONEGATE POOL

Jul. 12 | 2 PM | with Resurrection Overland Park

Kick off Vacation Bible Camp week with a splash! Head to Stonegate Pool on Saturday, July 12, from 2 to 4 pm for an afternoon of swimming, connection, and a cool treat on us, with pool admission covered for everyone... all are welcome. It's a relaxed, fun way for us to meet before the excitement of VBC gets underway. A parent or guardian (18 or older) is required to attend with children, and families are responsible for their own transportation. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll move the fun to Sunday, July 19, from 2 to 4 pm. Keep an eye out for updates!

Potluck & VBC Kickoff

Jul. 12 | 5:30 PM | Resurrection Liberty

Vacation Bible Camp is almost here, and we’re kicking things off together! Before the week of camp gets underway, join the Resurrection Liberty community for a potluck dinner celebrating the launch of VBC 2026. Bring a side dish or dessert to share, grab your lawn chair, and come ready to connect with other families as we gear up for a great week. This year’s theme is GOAL, which stands for Go Out And Love, and that spirit starts right here, around a table, with our neighbors.

VBC Celebration Sunday at West

Jul. 19 | 12:30 PM | Resurrection West

Vacation Bible Camp ends with a celebration, and this one goes all out. On Sunday, July 19, at 12:30 pm, plan to head outside for lunch, inflatables, and the return of the infamous shaving cream party, capped off with a fire truck hose-off to close out the week in style. Bring your friends, bring your neighbors, and come ready to get a little messy.

Local Serve Project

Vacation Bible Camp 2026’s mission collections are all about nurturing the love of learning in children. We are inviting all kids and their families to join us in the Go Out And Love Mission Collections in two ways:

Donating Kleenex boxes that will be donated to our Partner Schools
Donating Clorox wipe containers that will be donated to our Partner Schools

Goal: 2,000 Kleenex Boxes

Goal: 2,000 Clorox Wipes Containers

Global Serve Project

We are collecting money to support families in Malawi with compost toilets. This year we invite you to be a part of helping create composting toilets that offer a revolutionary, eco-friendly, and economically viable alternative by funding composting toilets. One compost toilet costs $300. We hope to raise enough money to build at least 33 compost toilets. These toilets do more than give families a safe place to go to the bathroom—they help stop the spread of sickness, protect the environment, and turn waste into fertilizer that can be used to help crops grow bigger and healthier. This means more food for families in Malawi. Our goal is to collect $10,000. If you’d like to make a donation now you may and it will be added to your registration or you can give during VBC week.

Goal: $10,000
