When something is a mystery, it means it is veiled, and often hidden from view. When a detective is trying to solve a mystery, they look for clues, they study and research everything they can about that topic, and they ask lots of questions. There are many things about our faith that can be a mystery to us. This year at VBS, we are going to dive in to uncover more about the amazing treasure of the Mass and the mysteries of Christ. With patience and perseverance, we can begin to understand a little more clearly the wonderful things about the Mass and Jesus in the Eucharist. Every day, you’ll be making new discoveries about our faith in each of the five stations: games, music, crafts, faith and snacks. Become a Secret Agent and join us for a week of fun!

Our VBS runs Sunday, August 3rd through Thursday, August 7, 2025 from 4:30- 7:00 pm. We’ll have music, games, snacks, crafts, and lessons. All children aged 4 years through this fall’s 6th graders are welcome to attend (sign up using a Participant Registration Form.) Those older than that are encouraged to help as teen leaders (please complete a Volunteer Registration Form.) Adults should also use this same form.

Due to the generosity of our Knights of Columbus, this year’s VBS will be free for all participants.

Please download, print, complete, and return the registration form(s). We do need one form for each participant, however siblings only need to complete all the information on one form and just the relevant information (name, age, etc.) on additional forms. Forms can be returned via email to faithformation@ctknsf.org, dropped in the offertory basket, or returned to the parish office by drop off or USPS: CTKSF, 9596 N. Reed Rd., Howard City, MI 49329.
