VBS Community Online Live – Week 2
During the Fort Worth VBS Preview last week, a group of VBS leaders worked together to make the Idea Banks of Lifeway’s VBS Community come to life. Here are just a few of the many great ideas:
Follow Up
In addition to Family Night during the week of VBS, host a VBS Celebration Night a few weeks later as the first step in a series of events designed to provide continued connection with unchurched families.
End of Day Dismissal
Create a Parent Lounge and encourage parents to arrive a few minutes early for refreshments and a chance to meet other parents and church staff.
Create numbered boarding gates. Give parent and child a corresponding number and let them both know they can meet at their specified boarding gate.
I’ll share additional ideas next Tuesday. Until then check out www.lifeway.com/vbs and join the Community.

The past two years I have sent letters and a poster on 81/2″x11″ paper to other churches in our community asking them to publicize our VBS. Everyone has been glad to do so.
