VBS 2025 - True North: Trusting Jesus in a Wild World
.png)
We are excited to begin our trek into the Alaskan wilderness for VBS 2025 (English), happening June 9–13!
Welcome to Totally Catholic, True North VBS—the ultimate summer adventure where kids will journey through the breathtaking beauty of Alaska. Picture northern lights dancing above majestic mountains, racing rivers, and shimmering glaciers. As kids trek across the tundra, they’ll discover how easy it is to lose sight of truth in today’s wild world. Together, we’ll guide them toward Jesus, showing them that He is our faithful friend - our True North- who we can always trust.
Each day, kids will rotate through engaging, field-tested activities that bring to life key teachings from Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition. Parents can look forward to a week filled with faith discoveries, unforgettable music, and epic adventures!
