Christian Education - Vacation  Bible School

Vacation Bible School (VBS) provides time to enjoy Bible study during the summer when most Sunday School and Bible study classes are in recess for summer vacation. It is generally held the third week in July at Franklin High School and it provides programs for all ages - nursery through adult.
Because FBC sees Vacation Bible School as a time of learning and fun for students of all ages, the curriculum is both age and theme appropriate.
VBS provides a nursery program for 2-year-olds, a pre-school program for 3-4 year olds, an elementary program for 1st through 6th graders, a junior high program for 7th and 8th graders and a senior high program for teens in the 9th through the 12th grades.

Not being just for children, each year First Baptist is blessed to have a tremendous turnout for the adult class, which is usually taught by a guest speaker. For those who feel they are too old for the teen classes and too young for the adult classes, we provide a young adult class. Periodically, special classes are held, e.g., youth leadership training, discipleship training, etc.
We boast over 500 people in attendance each year with 120 of our members volunteering to serve on one or more of the following committees:

• Registration

• First Aide

• Crafts

• Awards and Certificates

• Refreshments

• Audio Visual

• Publicity

• Transportation

• Finance

• Instructors

Volunteer instructors train teachers chosen from the First Baptist congregation, who serve during VBS. In addition, the First Baptist Security Ministry provides for our security, volunteer photographers capture moments to remember and those with the experience manage any equipment needed on site. Oversight for all of the committees is the responsibility of the Vacation Bible School Coordinator, who receives advised and supported from the Director of Discipleship.
