VBS 2026: July 14-16
Join Us for Lakewood Area Vacation Bible School This July
Harvest Community Church is excited to highlight the Lakewood Area Vacation Bible School this summer. This is a great opportunity for kids to learn about Jesus, make new friends, and enjoy a fun few days filled with Bible stories, games, crafts, and more.
This year’s theme is What a Mess. Sometimes life gets messy, but the good news is simple and powerful: Jesus loves messy people. Through this VBS, children will learn how Jesus deals with our messes and how His love brings hope, grace, and joy.
