VBS Ministry Opportunities 

Vacation Bible School is first and foremost an evangelistic ministry.  We endeavor to share the good news of Jesus Christ to all and to live out in an authentic way the life he has called us to lead!  If you are called to serve, please speak with Dave Mazur (see me at Church, call 413-526-9922, or email ddmazur@verizon.net).

Be a Station Leader
Station Leaders lead or co-lead the main VBS stations.  They are the heart of VBS!

Be a Crew Leader or Assistant Crew Leader (9:00-12:00 each day)
Crew Leaders and Assistants are the shepherds of the VBS "Lab Crews."  As a Crew Leader, you will lead your crew of 4-6 children through VBS each day, pray for them, help them participate in activities, and be the hands and feet of Jesus to them.  We need lots of Crew Leaders and Assistant Crew Leaders for both the elementary age program and the preschool age program.

Take a "behind the scenes" role
There are many roles other than Station and Crew Leaders.  Some of them require being at VBS for the week, others don't.
