2007 Vacation Bible School
Mission Offering Project

VBS PIONEER FUND
Qualifications

The 2007 VBS Pioneer Fund recognizes the tremendous potential that exists to minister holistically among children and at-risk youth in impoverished and marginalized communities and in new church plants. Young people are internally torn in the midst of competing interests. Compassionate ministry centers and local churches can conduct Vacation Bible School (VBS) summer programs so that relationships can be biblically and evangelistically grounded. A product scholarship will be given to the ministry specifically to acquire VBS resources from WordAction Publishing Company.

• The program must be designed for a cultural minority, economically deprived, or new church plant ministry.
• This offer is only for ministries that have not previously conducted a Vacation Bible School in the past three years
