The Theme

Attention! You’re in the Army now! It’s war out there, and the Purpose of BOOT Camp is to train, prepare and equip all of our Recruits to stand their ground and fight the good fight in the ageless battle between good and evil. Children will be

Enlisted in VBS as “Privates,” marching around your campus to cadences and songs, saluting one another, and preparing to be good soldiers for Christ. Your VBS workers will be Staff Sergeants, Sergeants First Class, and Master Sergeants. By the time BOOT Camp is over, the children will be prepared not only to defend themselves by using God’s armor, but also to advance on the enemy by practicing evangelism techniques they’ve learned. Yes, sir! This will be one fun VBS!

The Objective

The objective of BOOT Camp is to get children into the mindset that we are all involved in the war between God and Satan and that there can be no neutrality. We must all chose to be on God’s side and actively fight the battles against evil by standing for and spreading the Word of God both at home and in “enemy territory.”

A Dual Focus

B. O. O. T. Camp stands for “Biblical Outlook and Outreach Training.” In other words, BOOT Camp is designed to help children to think Biblically AND to reach out with God’s Word to unbelievers. This dual approach makes BOOT Camp an excellent teaching tool, both for believers and unbelievers.
