We are getting ready for an Awesome Week at READY, SET, MOVE! Vacation Bible School at JKPC!  
Your kids will learn to follow Jesus... Here, There and Everywhere!  

We have 90 students signed up for this Fun Week! If you're receiving this email, you've registered your child for VBS, or you've offered to volunteer. 

Here are a few updates:

VBS week is Monday-Friday, July 10-14,  9 a.m. - Noon  
We'll ask that all kids arrive at 8:45ish a.m. so that parents can first sign them in officially in the main courtyard.  

Our VBS will be both indoors and outside.  Inside the Sanctuary we'll enjoy opening assembly (songs, skits, & fun) and Music time.  Outdoor classroom time will be filled with Bible Lessons, Recreation, and Crafts.  Snacks will be served in Fellowship Hall.   

Music! 
We are excited to have Music Time with the kids - they love learning the songs and dance movements.
We will not be sending out CDs this year -  feel free to listen to the Music on our digital files.  If you have a music streaming subscription, we have built playlists on:

   Spotify    Amazon Music    Apple Music 
or for digital music links to each song,  CLICK HERE!  

SUNDAY Kick-Off on July 9

We will have a VBS Kick-off On Sunday, July 9, after church, at 10:45 a.m.   Join us for Costco Hot Dogs, Chips, Sno Cones, Crafts and Games.  You can also pick up your VBS T-shirt on this day.  We also hope to have shirts ready for pick up on Wednesday of next week if you want to get the early.  You can always get them the Monday morning of VBS, too. 

Snacks
We'll be asking kids to bring their own water bottles again this year. We'll be able to keep them refilled with cold water.  Our snacks are nut-free - Here are the daily snacks we will be serving. 

Monday:  Friendship Mix - goldfish, honeycomb cereal, popcorn, pretzels, and sliced apples
Tuesday: Cheese sticks and crackers, watermelon, too!
Wednesday: Muffins w/fruit and maybe yogurt, too!
Thursday : Mac and cheese and orange jello!
Friday: Sheet pan pizza and brownies

Parents - you can decide if you need to bring a similar snack for your kids if there are additional allergy concerns.  There will be a place on the sign-in roster to mark if you brought your own snack.  EpiPens will be held in the church office - make sure your name is on it. Please give it to your teacher at sign-in.
