  1. I don't understand. If the student volunteers to help at VBS they have to pay $50? How much do adult volunteers pay?

  2. Great question!

    The Ridgecrest Baptist Church VBS fills our evening schedules, but throughout the 1 Mile MT, we participate in service projects and other community activities during the day. The cost reflects the resources we need to complete our daily tasks.

    For example, the picture of Kyle and his friend is from a party we hosted at the Quail Creek nursing home during a past 1 Mile MT. Our students had a great time hanging out and playing games with the residents. From the cost of the MT, we purchased food, prizes, decorations and gas for transportation.

    I hope this helps! If you have additional questions, please let us know!

  3. p.s. If a student only wants to help with VBS and not participate in the 1 Mile MT, please contact Bev, in the children's ministry, at 885.5213.
