Important changes are coming to the development of Growing Up Catholic VBS themes.
Key members of our collaborative team are moving on, so we are taking some time to carefully discern the future of this ministry. Honestly, we have not yet made a decision about whether or not we will continue to develop new themes. If we do, it will require new team members. Developing each theme takes a huge amount of effort.
We are not developing a new theme for 2027. Instead, we will continue to sell and fully support our three existing themes (as we usually do). We encourage you to take advantage of them before they are retired! We may develop a new theme for 2028.
We apologize to the faithful leaders who have been purchasing our themes every year, and have therefore used all the available themes. We greatly appreciate your commitment to us. However, with our small team, other committed product development, and unexpected team changes, we simply do not have the ability to produce a theme for 2027.
We invite you to pray for our ministry and discernment in the months ahead. Please check back in 2027 for new developments.
— Paul, Colleen, Rachel, Ann, and the rest of the Growing Up Catholic team
