    The Starter Kit Plus Digital

    "The Starter Kit Plus Digital – Rome VBS 2026 by Group is such a blessing for our church. From the moment we started looking through it, you can feel the heart behind it—it’s not just a program, it’s an experience. What I love most is how it helps bring Scripture to life. Kids aren’t just hearing about Paul—they’re stepping into his world. You can already picture the excitement, the conversations, and those moments where faith really starts to click for them. The digital access paired with the physical kit has been a game changer for our team. It makes it so much easier to share with volunteers, stay organized, and keep everyone on the same page—especially when you’re juggling all the moving pieces of ministry. As someone who helps plan and coordinate, I truly appreciate how thoughtfully everything is laid out. The leader guides, training tools, and resources take a lot of the guesswork out and allow us to focus on what really matters—creating a meaningful, Christ-centered experience for our kids and families. Yes, it will take some prep (what VBS doesn’t?), but it’s the kind of prep that feels purposeful and exciting. Overall: This kit isn’t just helpful—it’s inspiring. It equips your team, supports our volunteers, and creates space for God to move in powerful ways. We’re so excited to see what He does through Rome VBS this year!"
