Under Construction is missions in action -- a VBS designed to share God’s love and encourage children to grow in Christian service habits. In partnership with Habitat for Humanity International, the well-known and respected Christian housing ministry, your children will discover the joy of Christian faith made more relevant through service to others. The program is biblically based, uses a construction theme, and involves children in activities that teach the value of "building" Christian community and participating in outreach service missions. Program elements include Bible theme activities, worship, music, dramas, community stories, and special craft projects for the children.

|------(optional paragraph)------
A unique feature of Under Construction is how it involves children directly in service and ministry through Habitat for Humanity International, a well-known Christian housing ministry. While children do not participate in the construction of Habitat homes, they do discover the joy of serving by creating crafts that are given to Habitat partner families and volunteers. An offering taken by the children during Vacation Bible School will be dedicated to providing housing for people in need through the ministries of Habitat for Humanity. (Your church name here) is also directly supporting the building of additional Habitat homes, since a portion of the program purchase price goes to Habitat for Humanity.
