Oceans of Love is a Vacation Bible School curriculum that examines 5 stories in the Bible that involve water. Using the theme of sailing, children will become sailors for the week and embark on a journey of searching for how God’s love is present in each story. Through songs, crafts, play, STREAM activities (Science, Technology, Writing, Engineering, Art, and Math), mission projects, and movement, kids and adults will discover together the “oceans of love” our God offers us.
This curriculum is divided into two age groups: Star Sailors (ages Pre-K to 2nd grade) and Sun Sailors (3rd grade-5th grade). However, you are encouraged to form groups as you see fit, and can even create mixed age groups as long as both groups are provided age-appropriate activities.
