May 2025

My goodness, it's already May! Our homeschool community is alreadyfinished for the school year, but I know many of you are still wrapping up this month. The Children's Department is gearing up for a big summer of fun!

In Sunday School we are continuing our study in Genesis, we are focused on Joseph this month.

For VBS this year I have been working with Brandon, the Children's Director at Midlothian Bible Church as they are also doing Answers in Genesis' Wonder Junction VBS this year. We are hosting the Wonder Junction VBS Preview Jamboree on Saturday, May 31 here at Oak Crest from 10 am - 12 pm. This is being advertised on the city website to hopefully draw in visitors from the community. The Jamboree will be a carnival similar to our Family Fun Fest every Fall, but with a western theme. Volunteers from MBC will be coming to help, but we need volunteers to help us run games and visit with families. We will have prepared gift bags with information about our church and our VBS dates/times, and MBC and their VBS dates/times. Please sign up to help today!

We still need volunteers for VBS! Wonder Junction VBS will be June 9-12 from 6 - 8 pm with a mini meal served at 5:30 pm. We are still searching for a High Point Bible Teacher. The Bible lesson is the most important part of VBS!! If you are available to teach even just one age group please let me know ASAP so I can give you the lessons to begin studying and preparing. We need our youth volunteers to register as well so I can plan out where each volunteer will be most needed. Sign up today and join the fun in Wonder Junction!

We will have a rotation of games, snacks, and crafts in the morning, a special hymn time, lunch, and an afternoon of studying John Bunyan's classic Pilgrim's Progress.
