“...rich biblical theology, unusual nowadays in materials for children, and a presentation that is unsurpassed for interest and fun. Moreover, the four-year cycle of themes allows us to mix freshness with experience.”Rev. Robert Rayburn |
“I highly recommend Reachout Adventures. Their material conveys the belief that our children deserve teachers with a deep understanding of the Scripture lesson. This program proves you don't have to sacrifice in-depth Bible teaching to have a creative, fun-filled week with children!”Mrs. Sue Jakes |
“The content of the Reachout material allows us to make the Gospel attractive. Every year young lives are touched and changed. Thank you for your partnership.”Rev. Alistair Begg |
IN-DEPTH BIBLE LESSONS
Summer Seaquest's profound content is sure to inspire
the young hearts and minds of your VBS Sea Explorers!
In SSQ's exciting daily Probing the Depths Bible Lessons:
Sea Explorers discover life-changing truths about Jonah—and the Jesus he points to—by diving into the tale of the runaway prophet who flees, then finally faces, God's challenge to him. |
Extraordinary "eyewitness" accounts of Jonah's roundabout route to Nineveh keep Sea Explorers on the edge of their seats during the 5-day voyage. |
By journey's end, young Sea Explorers have a deeper grasp of God's pursuing love and saving grace as they encounter the God who turns us around in repentance and obedience. |
“Christ-centered, Bible-based, doctrinally sound, and delightfully creative.
|
“...a stellar example of scholarship with a burning heart...an excellent example of creative educational tools to advance deep spiritual truth.”Rev. Joseph Novenson |
“The eyewitness storytelling really made the Bible story come alive and focused the children's attention on the truths of God's Word.”VBS Director Sarah Kitts |
“If you're looking to dig deeper into the Bible in your VBS, Reachout Adventures is the place to go!”Rev. James McManus |
“I am impressed with how you have kept the material fresh without compromising your Biblical and Reformed commitments.”Rev. Robert Looper |
Engaging Scripture Memory
In a Reachout VBS, memorizing God's Word plays a key & fun role. Your VBS kids will amaze you by how much of the Word they can hide in their hearts!
Summer Seaquest's memory work is learned in a question, answer, and verse format to aid in understanding, and is reviewed and encouraged
through the exciting Lighthouse Drill. Daily reviews help ensure that by week's end these key verses are hidden in the children's hearts.
Sea Explorers also learn important Gospel verses from the daily "Salvation Sea Crossing" Gospel presentation, and eager
memorizers can go on to learn Extra Credit Memory Verses, and the Books of the Bible.

“Since memory work is not as encouraged these days, our teachers and parents were surprised by the enthusiasm and ease with which even the youngest children learned their verses!”VBS Director Nancy Myers |
“Our VBS went great! Everyone loved the curriculum and the flow of the program. My favorite part was watching the kids dig into the Word. We are excited already about next year's program!”VBS Director Vicki Waide |
“Sound biblical instruction is never sacrificed for mere entertainment, and yet it is great fun for the kids. The Scripture memory emphasis enhances the eternal benefits of VBS.”Rev. Chad Steenwyk |
Salvation Sea Crossing
Gospel Presentation
For Reachout Adventures, the Gospel is front and center!
Summer Seaquest's theme-related Salvation Sea Crossing Gospel presentation
is a key part of every Summer Seaquest day, and is learned by the Sea Explorers—both
for their own understanding and to share with others.
Salvation Sea Crossing is creatively presented daily
through skits and an animated PowerPoint visual aid.
It's also colorfully illustrated and captioned
in their Student Logbooks for them to memorize,
take home to parents and friends, and remember
long after VBS is over.
“This material reaches both covenant children as well as community children who come through the doors of the church for the first time.”Dr. E. Brent Turner |
“Children’s ministry is often a desert of moralism...your VBS was a much needed wellspring of Gospel truth. Helping children find their identity in the Gospel is clearly VBS Reachout’s greatest desire!”Rev. Anthony Trussoni |
“The Gospel is clear, the means of Grace are clear, the emphasis on man's chief end is clear—and it is a tremendous amount of fun for everyone. Praise God for such a valuable resource!”Rev. Robert Looper |
“This was our first year using Reachout, & we had a great VBS! The kids are so sad it’s over & everyone is already excited about next year. The Gospel presentations were awesome!”VBS Director Laney Birch |

“The only curriculum that really gets kids into the Bible — reading, memorizing, and doing extra activities all connected with the Word of God. Kids and parents love these programs!”Children's Ministry Director Laurie Beavers |
“Our whole team loved the format and the depth of teaching involved. Also, it was wonderful how every aspect of the material, from music to crafts reinforced the Bible stories. The children and volunteers all had loads of fun with every station, but more importantly the children came to a greater understanding of the Gospel with each and every day. ”Rev. Anthony Trussoni |
“Reachout is all about the children and introducing them to Jesus Christ…It's exciting and Gospel-centered...the children can’t wait to get to VBS and don’t want to leave...our dedicated volunteers say Reachout makes our VBS a success!”Rev. Bruce O'Neil |
