There's a national park in the St. John's UCC sanctuary - and it looks like VBS
There's a national park in the sanctuary of St. John's United Church of Christ.
That's because Bluffton Community Vacation Bible School is in session this week. SonRise National Park! is the theme. VBS is sponsored by the Bluffton Area Ministerial Association.
Participating churches include
• Bluffton Presbyterian Church,
• Emmanuel United Church of Christ,
• English Lutheran Church,
• First Mennonite Church,
• First United Methodist Church,
• St. John’s United Church of Christ, and
• St. Mary’s Catholic Church.
The Icon dropped in on VBS during the games time on Tuesday.
Here's a glance at what we found - check out our video and photos:
