Vacation Bible School Canceled for 2020 - Lima First Assembly of God

Aug 19, 2019
Baptism & Worship Night

Overview

Lima First Assembly of God deeply regrets to announce the cancellation of Vacation Bible School (VBS) for the year 2020. We understand the importance of this annual event for our community, especially for children and families seeking a faith-based summer activity. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainties it poses, ensuring the health and safety of our participants, volunteers, and staff is our utmost priority.

Our Decision

After careful consideration and consultation with local health authorities and governing bodies, we have made the difficult decision to cancel VBS for this year. We understand the disappointment this may bring, but it is a necessary precautionary measure to prevent the potential spread of the virus and to protect the well-being of our community.

Community Support

While VBS will not be held this year, Lima First Assembly of God remains committed to supporting our community and providing resources to promote faith and togetherness in these challenging times. We are actively exploring alternative ways to engage and uplift our community members virtually, ensuring that the spirit of VBS still thrives.

Virtual Connections and Resources

We invite you to stay connected with Lima First Assembly of God through our website and social media platforms for updates and virtual faith resources. Our dedicated team is working diligently to develop innovative ways to foster spiritual growth, deliver inspirational messages, and provide opportunities for virtual fellowship.

Alternative Activities

While VBS cannot take place in its traditional form this year, there are several alternative activities and resources available for children and families. We encourage you to explore various online platforms and websites that offer virtual VBS experiences, faith-based educational materials, and interactive games. These alternatives can ensure that children still have the opportunity to engage in a faith-centered environment, even from the safety of their homes.

Looking Ahead

As we navigate these challenging times, Lima First Assembly of God is committed to evaluating the situation regularly. We will closely monitor the recommendations of health authorities and make informed decisions regarding future VBS programs. Our primary concern is always the health and safety of our community, and we look forward to resuming VBS when it is deemed safe and appropriate.

Stay Connected

We understand that the cancellation of VBS may bring disappointment and questions. Please feel free to reach out to our team through our website or social media channels for any inquiries or concerns. Lima First Assembly of God is here to provide support and guidance during these unprecedented times.

Conclusion

Although the cancellation of Vacation Bible School for 2020 is indeed disheartening, the decision was made with the utmost consideration for the health and well-being of our community. Lima First Assembly of God remains committed to our mission of strengthening faith and supporting our community, even during these challenging circumstances. We invite you to stay connected with us through our online platforms, where you can find virtual resources and faith-based content that will help nurture your spiritual journey.
