At FUMC Paragould our kids have fun while learning about the love of Jesus! We welcome you to join us for the fun! We have many loving teachers who go above and beyond in teaching our children about the Bible. It is a blessing for our staff and volunteers to love each child and give them a meaningful experience.

Knights of North Castle In-Home Vacation Bible School
We sure wish this summer’s VBS were an in-person event! We are truly going to miss seeing all of the children singing, laughing, learning, and growing in God together this summer. Still, we hope we can offer your children the very best alternative with At-Home Vacation Bible School!
As the most constant part of your child’s life, you have also been most important in helping your child know how loved they are by God, by you, and by others, and in guiding their spiritual growth and formation. Thank you for all you do in the work of daily discipleship, and thank you for your role in making sure we have the very best VBS program possible! Your leadership and supervision in just a few activities will make all the difference.
We are preparing VBS at-home packets for each child. We will include instructions for the daily “quests” for the children. We will supply the materials your children need to complete their daily quests. VBS is typically 4 days, but we have included a 5th day of activities this year.
Each day during the week of July 13-17, we will have a video posted on our church website and Facebook page which will introduce the day’s Bible story and Quest. We encourage you to watch these videos with your children. The videos will be available by 10:00am each day and you will be able to view them at the time most convenient for you. There will also be music videos posted for your kids to learn this year’s songs.
To hand out your at-home packets and celebrate together, we’ll host a VBS Kickoff Tailgate Sunday, July 12 at 7pm. You will park behind the Worship Center and stay in your car! We must practice social distancing! A tailgate or back hatch would be great! We’ll sing a few songs as children’s volunteers greet your kids. Then you will drive through the Welcome Center breezeway to pick up your at-home VBS packet. Also, we invite each household to make a peanut butter donation that evening in support of the Witt House.
We would love for you to share at-home VBS pictures and videos with us! We are looking forward to seeing the results of all of your hard work. We’ll put together a slideshow celebration for all the church to see!
Please know that we are praying for you as we walk together through this VBS discipleship journey. This year’s theme verse is Ephesians 6:10: “Be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his power.” Amen. May it be so for all us in this season!
