Your Knox County VBS team is excited about working with Knox County churches in the area of Vacation Bible School. The team has many years of experience. Tracy Jones has worked with VBS for over 10 years and is a member at Holston Baptist Church where her husband, Greg, is the Youth Minister. Tina Golden is a member at Lyons Creek Baptist Church where she has worked in VBS for over 15 years with the last several years being the church VBS Director. Diane Webster is a member at Buffat Heights Baptist Church having worked in VBS for over 20 years. Joe Chandler is the retired Associate Director of Missions with Knox County having been VBS Director for the Association before becoming Associate Director of Missions. As a former pastor, he led his church to conduct VBS each summer. Kathy Trundle also serves at the VBS Specialist for the Tennessee Baptist Convention.

When your church completes VBS, particularly if you have VBS early in Summer, please share your unused materials and promotional materials with other churches by bringing them to the associational office.
