Thank You to Everyone Involved in VBS 2025! VBS 2025 was an exhilarating, faith-filled, Alaskan adventure! About 100 youth participated in this year’s program as participants and volunteers! We spent a fun week discovering that even in a world gone wild, we can always trust Jesus, our TRUE NORTH!
Our Together in Christ teens were the hiking crew leaders throughout the week. Their caring and dedication to the children were true examples of how to be disciples of Jesus.
