Basic Training

2nd - 6th Graders | April 24-26

Calling all 2nd - 6th Graders............

Join us for Basic Training April 24-26 2026!


Sometimes our ordinary life can make us feel trapped. We can feel trapped by our worries, our doubts, our fears, and our sin. Sometimes we just wish we could break out and be free from these struggles. Through this escape room-themed VBS, kids will not only solve fun puzzles throughout the week, but will also learn that only God has the power to come in and break us out of the ordinary to lead us to the extraordinary.Throughout the weekend we will learn how to:


•Breakout From Disobedience

•Breakout from Getting Even

•Breakout from Danger

•The Greatest Breakout

•Prison Breakout


Register now and make plans to Break out of the ordinary!
