How to Plan VBS in Just 2 Weeks
In unprecedented times, your vacation Bible school can be unprecedented, too! Here’s a game-plan for pulling together an incredible VBS in 2 weeks or less!
If someone told you that it was possible to pull together an in-person VBS program for hundreds, or even thousands, of kids in just 2 weeks, would you believe them? Probably not! All that decorating and organizing and managing registration really adds up. Not to mention training all the volunteers. Well, that impossibility is now a reality with Online/At-Home VBS. VBS Directors have found that they can pull their programs together in less time and actually reach more kids!
Take a look at the timeline HERE to see how you can launch your VBS program in 2 weeks and be sure to check out the tips below for more ways to save time!

If you’re planning to pull your online VBS together quickly, here are a few ideas to help you out.
- Modified VBS Guides: We’ve done the work and created the modifications so all you have to do is apply them to Station Manuals found in your Starter Kit.
- Set up a registration site, like VBS Pro, so families can easily sign up and get details about VBS.
- If you’re doing Rocky Railway, you can use the Imagination Station videos that we developed for you to save time in filming and production.
- If you’re creating Stay-On-Track Student Packs, you can get everything you need in the Stay-On-Track Supply Pack with a click of a button!
- Have you never created a video? Reach out to your congregation to see if there is someone with video editing skills that can help you.
- Share the Presenting 101 tips videos with anyone who’ll be on camera and give them time to practice.
