Vacation Bible School

ROME

Paul and the Underground Church

At Rome, everyone gets to explore first-hand the culture of Paul’s world. They’ll experience the heartbreaking trials, joyous victories, and tear-filled celebrations of this unique Bible hero. God’s Word comes alive as children enjoy traditional Bible-times customs, occupations and even games!

Volunteer Registration

Please note: ALL adult volunteers must be VIRTUS certified before VBS begins. Certification does take some time, so if you are not already VIRTUS certified, please contact the parish office asap to learn how to get certified. The Diocese of Grand Rapids is committed to protecting the safety of the young people we are entrusted with. In order to ensure that one of the necessary steps is to take a Protecting God’s Children class if you plan to volunteer around youth. Please contact Linda Parks at the parish office at (616)363-6885 to begin the process.

Volunteers greatly appreciated! Service hours are available for kids in grades 6 through 12.

Please contact Ivonne Smith (ismith@stjudes.net) with any questions or volunteer inquiries. Thank you!
