Vacation Bible Adventure: Camp Fireflight
July 21- 25, 2024, from 6-8pm
Trusting God to Be With Us in Every Situation
Camp Firelight VBA is based on Psalm 56:3: “Whenever I’m afraid, I put my trust in you.” This verse reminds us that we can trust God no matter what challenges we face in life. Camp Firelight invites us to put our trust in God in every situation, including during times when we might be afraid.
Surrounded by water, trees, and rolling hills, Camp Firelight is the perfect location for every Camper’s favorite summer activities! During each assembly session, Campers join 1st-time camp Counselor Sam and Lou (short for Lumen), the lightning bug puppet, and learn to face their fears while trusting in God.
Each day, Campers see Counselor Sam face new challenges – from simple, like leading Campers on a hike, to intimidating, like meeting a new and wise nature expert.
With the help of Lu the Lightning Bug and the Camp Counselor Guidebook, Counselor Sam and our Campers explore timeless Bible stories that show how Old and New Testament Campers trusted God in the face of their own fears and went on to do great things in God’s name.
Through these stories, games, lessons, crafts and snacks, this program will teach us about people in the Bible who experience the gift of a trusting relationship with God, and it will teach us to trust God to go with us, to lead the way, to share wisdom, to give us peace, and to spark joy as we celebrate the good news of Jesus in our own lives and in the lives of others.
We will also learn ways we can connect with and put our trust in God, whenever we are afraid, challenged, or called to do God’s work in the world and share the good news of God’s love through Jesus Christ.
