The theme of this year’s VBS was “Chosen Generation – Called for a Purpose.” Based on the themes of being chosen, called, and sent by God for His divine purpose, special Bible classes and various spiritual activities were conducted throughout the three days.

The children’s fellowship began with prayer led by District Pastor Mathew Samuel. Along with Bible study classes, the programme included songs, action songs, games, missionaries’ life stories, and inspiring messages, providing the children with spiritual encouragement and a joyful and meaningful experience.

The VBS was conducted under the leadership of Pastor Jixen James, with Sister Blessy Jixen serving as the VBS Director. CRK COG Choir, along with Sisters Sharon and Sherin and Brothers Abel and Sarvesh, led the worship songs and action songs.

The CRK COG team also coordinated various departments, including volunteer services, transportation, media, food and refreshments, arts and crafts, and the safety and care of the children.

More than 100 children from various churches in Navi Mumbai participated in the three-day VBS. The programme contributed significantly to the spiritual growth of the children and helped strengthen their foundation in the Word of God.

On the concluding day, Pastor V. O. Varghese delivered a special mission message focusing on God’s calling, divine election, and the fact that God sends His people to accomplish His work. The message helped the children gain a deeper understanding of God’s purpose for their lives. As a result, many children made decisions to dedicate their lives to the Lord and to His work.

During the closing session, the children shared their experiences and blessings received through the VBS. Certificates and gifts were then distributed to all the participating children.
