The theme for this year’s Vacation Bible School is “River of Life.” In VBS, participants will learn about the importance of water and visit important “ports” during the week to hear Bible stories about water. They will also hear about communities working to restore watersheds, to protect rights to water and to ensure safe water for everyone. There will also be fun, with games and other activities to celebrate God’s gift of water and remind us of our important calling as God’s children to be good stewards of creation. VBS will run July 13th through July 17, 2026 at 717 Chambers St., Ottawa. Please contact the office during business hours (9-2, Mon – Thurs) or send an email to tlcoffice@trinitylutheranottawa.com to sign up!
