In The Wild Bible Crafts

Posted on Updated on

These are the crafts that can be used with the Lifeway’s In The Wild V.B.S. program. 

Although most Vacation Bible School curriculum programs provide or sell their own Bible crafts, many times they have nothing to do with the Bible story of the day or not much thought went into designing them in the first place.

My hope is that these crafts will help make planning your Vacation Bible School a little less stressful.

I just realized that Crafting The Word Of God made it into the top 10 list of Ministry To Children’s top 150 children’s ministry blogs and websites for 2018. 

I have made the intention and purpose of my site very clear throughout the years. My hope is that it serves as a blessing to you and your childrens ministry. 

A few things have come up this year that have kept me from fully spending as much time as I would otherwise like to invest on my site. But I will continue to work hard to provide you with the resources to make running your ministry smoother.
