We are inviting all children 3 years old through the 5th grade to be a part of the excitement at our Vacation Bible School, Beach party - surfin’ through the scriptures.

The Bible stories presented at the Scripture Scene encourage your children to develop Beach Be-Attitudes: Be Obedient, Be Kind, Be Forgiving, Be Bold, and Believe.

Your children will extend their learning through every activity: making their own special memories in Beachcomber Crafts, singing fun tunes at Sound Waves, experiencing science activities at the Surf ’n’ Sand Science Lab, participating in recreational activities at Rockin’ Rec, and enjoying tasty snacks at the Snack Shack.

Come enjoy some time on the beach with us at First United Methodist of Colleyville on Sunday June 22, through Thursday, June 26, 2008. From 6:00 to 8:15 pm. Light dinner served at 5:30 pm.
