NEXT
Vision Campaign
In order to continue to grow in our mission and vision, Thanksgiving is embarking on a three-year vision campaign called NEXT. We’ve been hearing stories of life transformation through Jesus and have reached the point in the campaign where those in the Thanksgiving family have been asked to make a commitment. Join us in services May 17th-18th for Celebration Weekend as we celebrate the commitments that have been made both relationally and financially to this vision. Visit the NEXT page for more information. It’s not too late to participate. The NEXT Guidebook – available in print on campus or digitally on the NEXT page – is a great resource to learn more about the vision campaign.
VBS 2025
True North
June 23rd – 27th
9:00–11:00am
It’s time for kids to hit the trail...for adventure! June 23rd - 27th from 9am - 11am.
At VBS, kids will discover they can trust Jesus—our True North—in a wild world! True North is filled with awesome Bible-learning experiences that help faith flow into real life. Registration is open for kids age 4 thru finishing 4th Grade, and for volunteers who want to help make it an amazing experience!
Thanksgiving is able to provide VBS free of charge to kids in our community because of your generous support! There are a few different ways to help: give financially, purchase from the Amazon Wishlist, or grab a bag from the stairwells to fill and return by June 1st. Thank you!
