Vacation Bible School
Challenge Accepted: With God, I Am Strong!
Our summer camp this year will be on the week of Aug. 17-21, 2026. Mark your calendar and start getting ready for a fabulous week at camp!
It might be cold outside but Summer in Ottawa is hot and all we need is Summer Olympics in Ottawa! Join us this summer for VBS SNOWBALL MOUNTAIN. Kids will become Challengers, gearing up for frosty games, snowy surprises, and hands-on lessons about resilience and faith. Guided daily by Ollie the Arctic Seal, who is reporting on the events, Challengers aren’t just playing games; they learn to draw strength from their faith through powerful stories of courage and hope. With a unique winter theme and solid theology at its core, this VBS delivers joy and meaning in equal measure, teaching kids that “I can do all things through him who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13 NRSV).
Snowball Mountain Challenge VBS transforms our space into a vibrant, high-energy winter sports arena set in the snowy peaks! Think snowboards, sleds, skis, snowflakes, colorful gear and banners, and a whole lot of snow. It’s bold, bright, and instantly gets kids excited for an unforgettable week of fun!
Snowball Mountain Challenge VBS promises kids a summer that will build their faith for a lifetime!
