Get ready for an epic quest at this year’s Vacation Bible School, where brave kids become Knights of North Castle!

Rooted in God's love and grounded in kindness, justice, and compassion, our VBS invites children to discover their strength in God as they explore Bible stories, engage in fun science experiments, create awesome crafts, sing songs that lift the spirit, and reflect on how to be loving neighbors in the world.

At Associated Church, all children are welcome—no matter their background, family structure, or abilities. We believe every child deserves a place to belong, explore, and grow in a faith that affirms their identity as a beloved child of God.

This adventure is open to children from age five through 5th grade, with free registration and plenty of joy to go around! Older kids and teens are also welcome to volunteer! Costumes are welcome, curiosity encouraged, and wonder is guaranteed.

We hope you will join us as we explore God’s love and learn how to put that into action in our lives and in our community. See you soon!

Too old to participate? We need volunteers too! Youth from 6th grade through 12th grade are invited to help out by decorating, serving as group leaders, and assisting our adult volunteers. If you are interested, fill out the form below!

All volunteers age 18 or over must pass a criminal background check before they are allowed to participate in Compassion Camp. Youth ages 12-17 must have a parent/guardian’s permission.
