Vacation Bible School
Geneva’s Children’s Ministry Team is excited to be working on our 2024 Vacation Bible School. This year we’ll be using Cokesbury’s Camp Firelight VBS curriculum and turning our church into a ‘summer camp’ with student ‘campers.’ Students will enjoy an interactive, energizing, Bible-based good time on their ‘summer camp’ adventure with God, discovering how to put their trust in God in every situation (based on Psalm 56:3: “Whenever I’m afraid, I put my trust in you.”) Our VBS kicks off with session 1 on Sunday, June 23 from 5:00-7:00 that includes dinner for the whole family, then continues Monday-Thursday from 9:00-12:00 with sessions 2-5 for students only.
We are planning fun and faith-filled activities, but we need lots of volunteers to make it all happen! Whether you can work all 5 sessions or just one, we need you!
We need volunteers to:
- help students check in and out each session
- lead small crews of students from activity to activity (camp counselors)
- lead and help at the Craft, Science, Recreation, and Snack Stations
- help with our Assembly Time, leading songs, dances or playing a role
- be a puppeteer for Lumen the Lightning Bug!
Please see Tina Terrill, Beth Stark or Nancy Glodich for more information about supporting our VBS through your time and talents.
Music Ministry
Wayne Hallinen, our new music director invites singers of high interest and various choir experience to join in a joyful noise. Rehearsals will be on most Thursdays (consult our calendar on the Geneva website) at 7:00 PM in the sanctuary.
We’re also looking for new and current members to join Bell Choir rehearsals. (You do not need to read music to ring bells, just be able to count to 3 & 4.) Anyone over the age of 12 are welcome. Please come join us! Please contact the church office or Carol Bunch if you will be joining the Bell Choir this season.
Coffee Servers
Those of you who like to start committing to acts of kindness early might like to sign up to be a Geneva Coffee Server in 2024. Coffee and other refreshments are served after worship on the third Sunday of the month, and sign ups are needed through summer 2024. Take a look at the 2024 sign up sheet next time you are in the gathering space, and thank your for your service!
