Vacation Bible School Day 5
It's hard to believe that SonRock Kids Camp is already over. 5 incredible days have come and gone. We hope it was a great time for kids to make friends, make some fun things, but most importantly learn about Christ so they can make a decision to receive Jesus into their lives. Thank you to all the parents for bringing the kids every day and to all the incredible volunteers and staff who did a super job running this VBS that ended with well over 800 kids our last two days.
Please check out all of the exciting children's, youth and adult ministries and events that happen all year long!

Vacation Bible School Day 4
A little rain, a little sunshine and a fourth day of a whole lot of fun and learning for the kids (and volunteers!)
DAILY TRUTH: I AM FORGIVEN BY JESUS
BIBLE MEMORY VERSE: YOU ARE FORGIVING AND GOOD O LORD, ABOUNDING IN LOVE TO ALL WHO CALL TO YOU. PSALM 86:5
The registration and check-in tables that are used every day.
Oh the things you can do with noodles and beach balls. People without the noodles are the goals and the noodle people are trying to score goals. They're not just for pools any more!

Vacation Bible School Day 3
Vacation Bible School day three is one of those incredible days through the week. It started again with energetic worship, humorous, but thoughtful drama and large group teaching.
Today is the day that the kids clearly learn about how much Jesus loves us all. In same great dramatic teaching, we all learned that receiving Jesus as our savior is as easy as ABC backwards:
C - Confess that Jesus is Lord
B - Believe that Jesus died on the cross for us
A - Admit that we make mistakes (sin)
DAILY TRUTH: WE ARE SAVED BY JESUS
BIBLE MEMORY VERSE: IF YOU CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH, "JESUS IS LORD," AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, YOU WILL BE SAVED. ROMANS 10:9 We all love cookies...but these preschoolers really are enjoying their snack break today!

Vacation Bible School: Day 2
Day number two meant even more kids since new kids sign up every day as the week continues. The weather was incredible as rain held off and the temps were in the 70's.
DAILY TRUTH #2 - I AM HELPED AND PROTECTED BY JESUS
BIBLE MEMORY VERSE #2 - I AM THE LORD, YOUR GOD, WHO TAKES HOLD OF YOUR RIGHT HAND AND SAYS TO YOU, DO NOT FEAR; I WILL HELP YOU. ISAIAH 41:13
We started the morning with four great, uptempo worship songs with cool actions. The drama was really funny and set the stage for the rest of the morning's teaching on God being our helper and protector. Remember this scene that included worms!

Here's Pastor Dan and his wife, Elena, teaming up for another drama during the teaching time. He's a camp counselor who has been reading his "camp manual" (Bible) and she's a highly distinguished counselor. They have very different opinions on what being a camp counselor means. Fortunately Dan trusts in his "camp manual" more than Elena's counseling.
Vacation Bible School: Day 1
Welcome to Sonrock Kids Camp! It's time for an incredible chance for kids to have fun and learn a lot about who Jesus is, how we should live our lives and what it means to have a relationship with Jesus Christ.

BIBLE MEMORY VERSE #1 - HOW GREAT IS THE LOVE THE FATHER HAS LAVISHED ON US, THAT WE SHOULD BE CALLED CHILDREN OF GOD! 1 JOHN 3:1 The morning starts with worship, drama and some teaching. This scene happens several times throughout the morning as the kids are divided by age and move throughout the campus for crafts, drama, worship, teaching, small group study, recreation and of course snacks!

Young Adults - Mohican Adventure
On Saturday, july 18th, 16 young adults spent the day at Mohican State Park. The day included a 7-mile canoe trip on the Mohican River, a visit to the park's fire tower and a picnic dinner at one of the scenic overlooks within the park.
The day began at PHBC around 8:30am where it was raining, cold and not too promising for a fun day in nature. As we headed south though, the clouds broke, the temperatures went up and the day turned out to be an ideal day to spend in God's creation!
Here's our picnic lunch. We really like to eat! We really love food!!!
