Rocky Railway FAMILY VBS!
In anticipation of Covid-19 restrictions beginning to lift, Annunciation is planning a family VBS this August: A new format at a new time. From 6 to 7:30 pm during the week of August 9th to 12th, families will learn how to trust in Jesus in a fun and dynamic way through Bible Adventures, amazing music and sciency-fun gizmos!
There are many ways parishioners can become involved and support VBS.
- Invite! Spread the word by inviting family, friends and neighbours to our Family VBS.
- Register! Register your family HERE.
- Donate! Help cover the cost of snacks and supplies to keep registration low for families. Cash donations or grocery store gift cards can be dropped off at the parish or in the donation basket.
- Lend! We need Christmas trees, vintage suitcases and lanterns to transform our parish into a Rocky Mountain train station. Do you have any of these items that you can lend? Contact Laura at VBS@annunciation-ottawa.com with a photo or description of your item. All items will be returned after VBS.
