Calling all children age 4 - completed 5th grade. June 15 - July 13.
Join us this summer for Project Parables, a 5 week remote summer camp that explores some of Jesus' most famous parables through video stories and a variety of weekly activities.
To participate, you must register on georgetownbaptist.org.
Registrations will now go on a waitlist. We would love to include you if we can. We will contact you soon.
About Project Parables
Each Monday a new parable story video will be uploaded to multiple viewing platforms. Registered families will receive a list of 4+ activities to go along with each week's parable. Some supplies will be common household items and others will be provided via a pickup location at the church. Activities are designed to serve a variety of ages and learning styles. Your family can do all 4 activities throughout the week or choose one or two that interest you. Some can be done independently too. There will also be ways to share your family's creations and communicate with other campers.
We want to keep everyone safe this summer by observing social distancing. Unfortunately that means we will be postponing our usual VBS activities until we can be together in a large group again. But we can still learn together and have fun! Hope to see you at Project Parables: A Remote Summer Camp.
Participant Information
Parable Videos
All of the Project Parables videos will be posted to the Georgetown Baptist YouTube channel and Georgetown Baptist Church Facebook page. Every Monday from June 15 - July 13, a video will post at 9 am. You can view each Parable at any time in the week. Be sure to watch the parable before you start the activities.
Activities & Supplies
Activity instructions will be included in your supply kits as print copies. They will also be emailed in PDF form to the email address you provided on the day of supply kit pick-up.
All of the “Church Provides” supplies will be included in your supply kits. We plan for 3 supply kit pick-ups. This will allow us to ensure that everyone who wants to participate can receive supplies in a timely fashion.
Pick up your supplies from the Georgetown Baptist Preschool Building front porch on the pick-up dates below. Pull up to the curb and we will bring you your supply kit. We will be masked and likely in silly costumes too, just to make it more fun!
Pick-up dates:
Sunday, June 14 4:00-6:00 pm (Week 1)
Saturday, June 20 4:00-6:00 pm (Weeks 2-3)
Sunday, July 5 4:00-6:00 pm (Weeks 4-5)
If you are unable to make the pick-up time, we will leave your supply kit on the Preschool Building Porch for you to pick up and try to connect with you via phone.
