Use the Register Here link, below
At True North, kids discover that they can trust in Jesus in a wild world! True North is filled with awesome Bible-learning experiences kids see, hear and touch!
Hands on science experiments, team-building games, unforgettable Bible songs, and tasty treats are just a few of the standout activities that help faith flow into real life. (Since everything is hands on, kids might get a little messy. Be sure to send them in play clothes and sturdy shoes.) Plus, we'll help kids discover how to see evidence of God in everyday life — something we call God Sightings. Get ready to hear that phrase a lot.

True North VBS Food Drive Service Project
We will be partnering with West Valley Community Services
as we all help drive out hunger and homelessness.
West Valley Community Services has been providing support to women, children and men living in poverty in the west valley since 1973.
We are collecting non-refrigerated food items. During the week of VBS, all participating children have an opportunity to shop at our VBS store and pick out items that they would like to give to West Valley Community Services. This portion will be included in each child's registration fee. Children can also bring more money and/or food (from the given list) from home if they wish. Read a list of needed items and more detail in this flyer.
VBS Family Sunday is the following Sunday, Jun 29. Join us for worship at 10:45am — Kids will sing songs they learned that week. After worship, join us on the playground for hot dogs and hamburgers from the Road Dogs food truck, Kona Ice, a water slide, jumpy house and crafts. The food truck is available beginning 10am for first service folks.
