OCF KIDS: VBS Registration (2025) - Volunteers

JUL 28 - AUG 1 | 5:00pm - 7:30pm | Guide kids on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where northern lights glow over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and glistening glaciers. As kids trek the tundra, they’ll explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true in our wild world today. Pointing them toward Jesus, True North VBS shows them that he is a faithful friend we can always trust. He’s our True North!

Please note that the mandatory VBS Training Meeting is on Sunday, June 29th. Dinner and childcare will be provided. If you cannot attend you will be asked to attend a make-up meeting in order to serve.

*Volunteer registration closes on May 31st

* The Decorations team does not meet during the week of VBS, so you can serve on this team in addition to taking on another role during VBS. Meeting dates and times for decorating will be announced in the month before VBS, which will include opportunities to prepare decorations independently from home. While attendance at every meeting is not required, we’d love your help—especially the week before VBS when it’s all hands on deck!
