Due to Covid-19, the Dell Rapids Community Vacation Bible School board has made the decision to cancel the annual VBS programming that is normally head this year. However, the board has found a great program that families can do in the convenience of their homes whenever it fits into their schedules. That program is being offered to families at no cost.
The curriculum will be composed of four days with a theme for each day. Curriculum includes opening and closing worship songs, arts and crafts project, nature project, snack idea video, story time segment, afternoon activity challenges, and a devotion to do with the entire family.
The Dell Rapids Community VBS board will provide links to the videos, devotional pages, materials list, and nature activities for each day. They will also be putting together a packet with all of the materials needed for the crafts for the four days.
Anyone that would like to be a part of the Virtual VBS curriculum, send an email to drcommunityvbs@gmail.com and include name, email address to send the links to, and how many children will be participating so the board knows how many activity bags to make in advance. Deadline to sign up is Friday, July 10th.
For those that sign up to take part in the curriculum, items can be picked up at the Dell Rapids Lutheran Church during the week of July 14th – 17th (Tue-Fri) from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. The packets will be located inside the entryway, and there will also be printed devotional pages and nature activity pages .
Information will be emailed by Sunday, July 19th. Families can share their photos by tagging the photos on Facebook with #drcommunityvbs.
