Celebration Sunday Service (VBS)

Hello Parents,

We had another exciting day at SonSurf Beach Bash today!  We learned a great deal throughout the week and were thrilled to have your child attend and participate.  Remember that VBS fun is not over!  We have our Celebration Sunday service on August 7th at 10:30am, when we will sing our VBS songs and tell you more about our week.  Please bring your children 10-15 minutes early so that we can start on time, and have them wear their VBS shirts to celebrate!  All are welcome to join us for refreshments after the service!
