Silent Auction Bake Sale Fundraiser for WCR Students

June 14, 2026, 9:30 AM

Support our student mission trip to Kentucky by attending our silent auction bake sale this Sunday morning! We will be setup in the ROC (gym) before and after 9:45AM Bible Study. Visit the bake sale at your convenience and write down your bid. Bidding will close at 11AM sharp.

After worship, head back to the ROC and see what you won! You will be able to take your goodies home with you to enjoy that day. We will accept cash or check only.

Our students will be providing the baked goods for the silent auction, but if you would like to donate items, please email Pastor Brandon.

Help Us Invite Our Community to VBS!

We also have invite postcards available for you to share with families in your neighborhood, coworkers, friends, and anyone you think might be interested in attending VBS.

Thank you for helping us reach our community with the good news of Jesus!

Emerald Crossing Vacation Bible School (VBS)

Jun 22 – Jun 26, 2026

In a world filled with worry and confusion, kids need to know there is a God who cares for them. At Emerald Crossing VBS, they’ll journey through Ireland’s lush landscapes, exploring the powerful words of Psalm 23. They’ll discover the life of the shepherd-king David and will learn how to cross from worry to peace, from fear to faith, and from uncertainty to a firm foundation in God’s Word through a relationship with the Good Shepherd.

Get your passport ready for Ireland and join the adventure!

Kids will enjoy exciting music, engaging science & crafts, hands-on Bible lessons, high-energy games, missions moments, and delicious snacks in a fun, safe environment. Community members and friends are encouraged to join in daily for this special time at Wake Cross Roads!

VBS is open to children ages 3 years old through 5th grade and will take place June 22–26 from 6:00–8:30PM each evening.

Please note: All children must be fully potty-trained to attend. Space in our preschool program has been filled, but we are creating a wait-list and will add your child as space becomes available.
