TRUE NORTH

Kids are headed out on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where the northern lights shine over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and sparkling glaciers. As they trek the tundra, they’ll discover how easy it is to lose sight of what's true in our wild world today. Guiding them towards Jesus, True North VBS reveals that He is a faithful friend we can always trust. He's our True North!

We’re so excited!

This year’s mission:

Over the years, Sweet Sleep has distributed over 32,000 beds to those most in need of physical rest. In Northern Uganda, many of the children they serve are HIV+, and nearly all of them have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS or the brutality of civil war. To them, having a bed to sleep on means protection against cold, insects, and disease. It also means hope for better tomorrows, as a good night’s sleep helps them feel healthy, rested, and worthy.

Money donated during our week of VBS will go to help make all of this happen!
