‘Shipwrecked’ Vacation Bible School begins (4yrs-5th Grade)

June 11th-15th, 8:45am-Noon

Venture onto an uncharted island where kids are rescued by Jesus! Anchor kids in the truth that Jesus carries them through every storm in life. They’ll learn to hold onto God’s promises when they are lonely, they worry, they struggle, do wrong, and feel powerless.

VBS is open for ages 4 by 8/31/18 – 5th Grade. If you are a VBS Volunteer, we have programs for children younger than four too. For more information, please contact us in the Children’s Ministry office at 693-3493 or email us at harrisl@fbchnc.org.
There is no cost to attend our VBS.

CLICK HERE (https://kideventpro.lifeway.com/myChurch/?id=45610) to register your child or for you to register to Volunteer with us. Online Registration will end for VBS on June 7 but you can still register on site during the week of VBS at the church.

Southern Highland Clay Fest

For over 20 years, June has been a highlight for the ceramic community of the Southern Highland Craft Guild. Hosting a six-hour event filled with slip, flames and sweat, members and guests demonstrate their skill set behind the wheel or over a kiln, alongside the precision and patience of surface design and hand building. In conjunction with the free opportunities of experiential learning from master artisans, Southern Highland Clay Fest has a new expanded element of booths filled with the charm and beauty of potters’ goods.

Located at the Guild’s headquarters, the Folk Art Center, visitors are invited to participate from 10am – 4pm in various activities. For the serious shoppers and collectors, the hill behind the Center’s auditorium will hold booths with Guild members and invited guests from outside of the region. Ceramic wares of both decoration and function will be available for purchase.

The Southern Highland Craft Guild offers this free event to the public to further educate about the region’s fine makers.
