VBC KIDS covers the ages from infants through fifth graders. Sixth graders are allowed the option to participate in Awana and Kids Choir.
The mission for VBC KIDS is to help kids KNOW Jesus, GROW in Him, and SHOW His love to their world.
“Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’” (Matthew 19:14)

VBC BABIES (located in the Worship Center) is for new babies through 35 months. We love babies and want to see them grow up to love Jesus!

We are open every Sunday during the morning worship services, as well as for special church events as announced.
VBC KIDS JR. (located in the Family Life Center) is fun for tiny tikes 3-years old through Kindergarten. We want them to know and love Jesus too. We have games, creative play, activities, and stories geared especially for them on Sundays during 9:00 AM & 11:00 AM worship services.
