Community Vacation Bible School suspended for 2020
The ecumenical leadership group who plans VBS is saddened to announce:
In light of the current government and health guidelines surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic, the BHBL Ecumenical Ministers Council has decided it would be unwise to hold Vacation Bible School this summer. Our primary concern is for the safety and wellbeing of the children and volunteers that are the heart of VBS. Given the size (nearly 200 people) and scope of our annual VBS week, it would be unrealistic to expect to be able to accommodate the principles of social distancing, wearing of masks, sanitizing surfaces, etc. We know that this is disappointing news for many, including all of our VBS puppets! The puppets really enjoy spending time with the kids each summer so they have decided to be available for virtual storytime, secret reader and more! Stay tuned to the BH-BL Summer VBS Facebook page for details. Not on facebook? Contact Christine Goss at cicyouth@nycap.rr.com for more information.
