Children's Ministry
At Asbury, we want to create a safe, fun environment for kids to learn about the love of God. Kids will hear stories from the Bible, learn to worship in song, and learn to love God and love others.

Vacation Bible School is a free event that takes place during the summer months and is fun for the whole family! In 2024, about 50 people (children& adults) spent four days diving deep into friendship with God at Scuba VBS! Through Bible Stories, Games, Music, Science Experiments and more, we learned that God is a friend who is real, God is a friend who loves, God is a friend we can trust, and God is a friend for everyone!
If you would like more information about next year's VBS, contact Michelle Baird, Director of Children’s Ministries.
