Summer VBS Guide

7 Amazing Religious Camps Free & Low Cost

By Courtney Daly-Pavone June 4, 2019

VBS Vacation Bible Study is a great way for your child to learn, play and discover spirituality this summer. Many San Diego churches offer VBS Camps at low cost, or absolutely free. 

This years theme is ROAR, kids discover that God is still good even when things get wild! Kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, make and devour yummy treats, experience one-of-a-kind Bible adventures, collect Bible Memory Buddies to remind them of God’s love, and test out Sciency-Fun Gizmos they’ll take home and play with all summer long.
