Vacation Bible School (VBS) Registration Opened May 9, 2022.
Monday, July 18 through Friday, July 22, 2022, Vacation Bible School (VBS) returns to St. Stephen's Catholic Community! This year’s theme is ZOOMERANG.
Children in preschool (must be potty-trained) - those entering 5th grade will join the trip of a lifetime as we zoom off to the land down under each day from 9 am until 12:30 pm at Stephen's Church. We'll marvel at the unforgettable wildlife, culture, and beauty of Australia while exploring the wonder and value of life, from the lives of preborn babies to eternal life in the kingdom of God.
Experience the jaw-dropping beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, the arid temperature of outback afternoons, the architectural marvels of Australia’s modern cities, and the fascinating eucalyptus forest, home of the koalas.
REGISTRATION OPENED MAY 9 AND ENDS JUNE 18! Registration will be completely online via a Google Form that will be sent out via FlockNote and available here in English and in Spanish. Volunteer registration will be available on June 1st, 2022.

God Squad (formerly known as MSquad)
God Squad (formerly known as M Squad) is an opportunity for middle school and high school youth to grow in faith, fellowship, leadership skills and have fun while doing it!
This is a group of dedicated youth that will be in charge of leading various aspects of Vacation Bible School (VBS). By participating in God Squad you are committing to helping with VBS every day and participating in the afternoon activities planned. The reason there are afternoon activities is because we have VBS to help our elementary-aged youth grow in faith and fellowship during the summer, so in order to help support our middle school and high school aged youth grow in these ways too we have this supplementary time in the afternoons.
By signing up for God Squad you are agreeing to attend the proper trainings which are on the following dates:
Monday July 11th from 4-8pm for HIGH SCHOOL PARTICIPANTS ONLY
Friday July 15th from 4-8pm for MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL PARTICIPANTS
Cost: $88 (Can pay via check, credit/debit card in the Parish Office or on the parish website under Online Giving). This covers training meals, snacks throughout the week, trip to Anoka Aquatic Center, activity supplies, T-Shirt, etc.)
