Get Equipped
How do you choose the best Bible school ideas for your ministry? Start with identifying which theme jumps out at you as the most exciting, engaging, and biblically sound.
There are many great VBS themes. You’ll need to narrow your decision down to the themes that are the most tangible for your space, budget, volunteers, and resources.
Once you’ve decided, it’s time to get equipped. Start by getting the word out through your church website, emails to your congregation, and getting a banner outside your church building.
Properly placed Vacation Bible School banners can build interest and draw in children in your community to your church.
