Closer to God; Closer to One Another
There is no firmer foundation than Jesus Christ.
When the family seeks spiritual growth as a unit, they become a tighter knit unit altogether. Vacation Bible School is a cherish tradition in modern churches. The only drawback of traditional Vacation Bible School is that it can sometimes act more as 'summer childcare' with a Jesus veneer rather than a true opportunity for discipleship. At The Well Community Church, we want to encourage families to grow spiritually together.
The Family Bible Camp series is a collection of "Vacation Bible School"-like activities designed to give a high-level overview of the Bible, focusing on key events of the Old Testament and drawing a direct connection to the Christology of key themes. Participants will watch, learn, pray, and get active with their lessons, ultimately bringing them to a clearer understanding of who God is in their lives.
