Highlights at Valley Hope

VBS Volunteers Needed
We’re excited to announce this year’s VBS, happening July 15th-18th. Our theme is ‘Magnified: Discover the Bigness of God in the Smallest of Things,’ and we have some fun new additions, including a Creation Exploration Team with live animals and hands-on activities to explore God’s creation.
We need your help to make this happen! There are plenty of ways to serve – from crafts to teaching to helping with registration. Whatever your gifts, we’d love for you to get involved. Last year, we had 150 kids, and we’re excited to invite even more families this year.
If you’d like to volunteer, please sign up using the volunteer form. It’s a great opportunity to serve, share God’s love, and invite neighbors into what we’re doing at Valley Hope.

We're Hiring
We're hiring two positions:
1. Home Rebuild Project Manager
2. Volunteer & Restoration Coordinator
Two positions are now open on our Helene Relief and Restoration Team! If you have a heart for restoration in our community and are interested in serving our neighbors as a Home Rebuild Project Manager or Volunteer & Restoration Coordinator, we would love to hear from you! Full job descriptions and application instructions can be found online. Feel free to spread the word to anyone you know who might be a good fit for these roles!

VHC Workday
May 31 | 9AM - 1PM
17 Foundy Street Asheville, NC
Let's help Mark and Jacqueline Oliver, VHC members, as they rebuild their studio destroyed in Helene. We would love your help with various construction, restoration, and cleaning projects. This is a workzone, so we ask that only adults and youth 10+ participate in this workday. Please sign-up so we know how many volunteers to plan for!

Splash Country
June 11
All rising 6th graders - graduating seniors - We're going to Dollywood's Splash Country!!
Cost: $30. This is a steal! This includes drive there and back, park admission, and food for the day!
Where is drop-off and pickup?: You’ll drop off your students at Valley Hope Church (115 Rockdale Ave, Swannanoa NC, 28711) at 7:30 AM on Wednesday, June 11th and you’ll pick them up that evening at around 8PM
Can You Invite Friends?: Yes! Absolutely! You may invite anyone to join in for this retreat. They simply need to fill out the registration, and they are in. NOTE: If money is prohibitive for you to invite a friend, we’d still like them to be able to join. Let us know, and we can scholarship them so that they can still be blessed by these few days.
What to wear: It's a water park, so you're going to get wet! Wear a bathing suit and change of clothes. You're going to also be splashing and moving, so please keep that in mind when picking your outfit!
