FUMCA Vacation Bible School

Hit the Road with God This July at FUMCA VBS!
This summer, kids are invited on an unforgettable faith-filled adventure at First United Methodist Church of Alexandria’s free Vacation Bible School: Road Trip: On the Go with God!
Held on Friday nights throughout July, Road Trip VBS is open to children entering Pre-K through 5th Grade for the 2026–2027 school year. Each evening will feature music, crafts, games, science activities, snacks, and engaging Godly Play Bible stories designed to help children discover that God is with them wherever life’s journey leads.
Using stories from both the Old and New Testaments—including Abraham and Sarah, Zacchaeus, Mary and Elizabeth, and the Israelites in the wilderness—kids will explore the theme: “God is with us on the journey.” The program’s key verse is Joshua 1:9: “The LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
Created by Cokesbury, the Road Trip VBS curriculum combines interactive learning, creativity, and faith formation in a fun, welcoming environment for children and families alike.
VBS takes place Fridays in July from 5:30–8:00 p.m. at First United Methodist Church of Alexandria, located at 2727 Jackson Street in Alexandria.
