The title of this post is inaccurate.\u00a0 Vacation Bible School<\/a> is never over.\u00a0 Well, perhaps the actual program is, but the “follow-up” that ought to be taking place, keeps it going.\u00a0 Various kinds of follow-up can be implemented to help make this year’s VBS even more spiritually successful as well as set the stage for the next VBS.\u00a0 While everything is fresh in people’s mind, it’s time to start planning for the next year.<\/p>\n

Follow-Up Ideas for When VBS is Over<\/h2>\n

The following ideas provide some broad suggestions for what you can do for follow-up. Specifics for implementing these suggestions depends on your setting but in some way could be a part of your plan.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Take Home Follow-up<\/li>\n
  2. Contact Follow-up<\/li>\n
  3. Discipleship Follow-up<\/li>\n
  4. Parent Follow-up<\/li>\n
  5. Prayer Follow-up<\/li>\n
  6. Report Follow-up<\/li>\n
  7. Evaluation Follow-up<\/li>\n
  8. Staff Follow-up<\/li>\n
  9. Reunion Follow-up<\/li>\n
  10. Outreach Follow-up<\/li>\n
  11. Projecting Forward Follow-up<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If your VBS program is long over and you haven’t done any follow-up, you can still implement some of these ideas.<\/p>\n
