Intergenerational Nature Workshop
Not Your Average Vacation Bible School (VBS)
At First Presbyterian Church we have our own variation of "Vacation Bible School." Each summer we host a week full of nature and spirituality exploration for ALL AGES - kids, teens, adults, individuals and families! It’s all about reconnecting --connecting to God, connecting to the earth and connecting to others.
Stay tuned for 2019 plans, typically announced in May. Come be spiritually nurtured through nature! Weather permitting, we are outdoors as much as possible.

2017 Nature Workshop,"Connected! It's a Wonderful World!"
It truly is a Wonderful World! Our evenings were spent mostly outside enjoying nature and reconnecting. Connecting with God, connecting to the earth, and connecting with others!
The weather was a bit more rainy this year, but we still found time to spend out in nature.
Our week was filled exploring nature, being creative, getting our hands dirty, playing games, working together, learning about bee keeping, and of course connecting!
Throughout the week, participants were challenged to "Capture a Prayer," by looking for and capturing moments that represented specific qualities. Each day they were given a different topic (example: something that represents the beauty of God, something that shows connectedness, something tha shows new life, etc)
