Vacation Bible Schools are well underway in the Miss Lou with activities for kids and youth to teach them valuable life lessons while giving them a chance to have fun.

Many area churches host VBS for their church families, but also open their doors to the public. Contact your church of choice to ask them about registering your child for VBS this summer. We’ve asked area churches to submit their schedules for VBS and have compiled a list of them here:
