Just Like Me
2024 Vacation Bible eXperience
hello!
Welcome to VBX! An inclusive Vacation Bible eXperience for kids ages 4-12 this summer here at Puyallup United Methodist Church in downtown Puyallup.
VBX will be August 12-16 from 9 am to noon and is free to register.
Our summer camp theme for the year will be Just Like Me a biblically based and theologically informed curriculum. Your kids will enjoy fun activities together while learning how community works best when “you’re just like you and I’m just like me!”

About our VBX program
Friends ages 4-12 are welcome to come and join us as we celebrate who we are, learn how to use our voice and share our gifts with others. Everyone has a song to sing and a gift to bring!
Each day at VBX we’ll meet a new character of our “Garden Group” who’ll share what makes them special and invites us into a new Bible lesson and skill. Every member is unique, and we need each of their gifts to make a garden thrive.
Throughout the week, your littles will be encouraged to wonder, shout, share, build community, and speak up for others. Daily themes will be explored through storytelling, structured play, snack time, crafts, and music.
Just like the characters we’ll learn about in our daily Bible stories, your children will discover that these amazing characters in the Bible are just like us! And how the things that make us different are also the things that make us special!
“JUST Like Me is an inclusive VBS curriculum that will help kids celebrate their identity as God’s beloved creations just as they are! Through scripted lessons and extension activities, students will practice sharing, asking questions, using their voice, finding community, and speaking up for others.””
