Welcome to Seekers in Sneakers: Discover Jesus!, an interactive Vacation Bible School where children use their investigative skills to discover Jesus. Geocaching activities will challenge children to dig into the Bible to find the way to Jesus.
This journey of discovery has many twists and turns, so children will learn to ask questions, work with others, shine their light in the world, follow Jesus’ example of serving others, and trust Jesus when things go wrong.
