Big Apple Adventure Logo Colour

We’re heading on a BIG APPLE ADVENTURE!!

(May 29 Update – Registration is 2/3 full)

Join us for our Vacation Bible School “Big Apple Adventure” as we learn where faith and life connect!

The Adventure begins Monday, July 22 and runs until Friday, July 26 from 9:00 am. til Noon each day.

The program is for “tourists” ages 5 to 12 and there is also a Teen class. 

Please note:  we regret that we are not able to accommodate children with special needs – whether physical or emotional.

The program includes a daily Bible lesson, games, music, crafts, and snacks (snacks are provided – food allergies must be noted on the registration form.)

Registration is $5  * (see below)

If you wish to register your child(ren), please call Rev. Paula at 902-892-5255 or email her at stmarkspres@eastlink.ca

**Because registration is limited to 60 children and we are full every year, we now require the registration fee be paid prior to July 1 to ensure your child’s space is reserved.  This is to avoid other families being told there are no spaces available only to have “no shows” the week of VBS.
