SADDLE RIDGE RANCH
MVPC VBS 2022
Roundin’ Up Questions – Drivin’ Home Answers
Dates: June 6-10, 2022
Time: 9am to Noon
Dust off your boots, saddle up your steed, and gallop on over to Saddle Ridge Ranch where we’ll be roundin’ up some of the tough questions kids have about faith and drivin’ home the answers straight from God’s Word. The past couple years may have us confounded and bewildered, but now that we’re settling back into our saddles, it’s time to set ourselves on a path to happy trails ahead with Jesus in the lead.
Over the week, we’ll be wranglin’ with: Who am I? Does God care about me? What is God’s plan for me? How can I be like Jesus? And what do I do now? As always, it will be a wacky and wild adventure with our beloved skit characters creating chaos and confusion all over the Ranch! Each day, we’ll kick up our heels with songs of praise and worship, then stop in at the Country Crafts Corral. We’ll have a blast at Rodeo Recreation and refuel at the Chicken Coop Café. We will open and close each day in the Saddle Ridge Sanctuary and by week’s end, harnessing the power of Jesus’ love, we’ll have made new friends, strengthened old friendships, and be riding off into the sunset with a saddle bag of wisdom to guide our path.
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” James 1:5
Our wild west adventure needs many Ranch Hands to drive us into this rip roarin’ week. We’re staffing small group leaders in PreK thru 5th grade, Hospitality, Crafts, Prayer Team, Kids’ Snacks, Recreation, Tech Team, Photography/Social Media, and Puppet Team. Each summer, 150+ volunteers share their faith and talents with one another and our wonderful kids! We are already praying for you and can’t wait to see who God will round up!
If you’re considering joining us this summer as volunteer staff, each one of our Ranch Hands will experience the joy of helping children grow in their faith. At Saddle Ridge Ranch VBS, no activity stands alone – instead of leading independent, isolated small groups – we’ve rigged together an integrated, Bible-based program that provides kids a unique, total VBS experience that is interactive, safe, fun, faith-filled, and life-changing!
