Vision - “To Excel in Christ”

Excel VBS 2022

Welcome

Thank you for choosing Excel VBS, one of the widely accepted and popular VBS curricula across the globe. We welcome you to an amazing world of fun-filled, Bible-based, result-oriented VBS experiences for your young ones!

THE EXCEL STORY

Excel Ministries had its humble beginning in August 2007, driven by the vision God gave to two Bible college mates, Binu Joseph and Anil PM. Subsequently, the ministry took root with the vision of reaching the young generation with the love of Jesus. The initial VBS was thus conducted in more than 200 places across Kerala, the southernmost state of the Indian subcontinent. This movement slowly snowballed into a cross-cultural and interdenominational VBS Ministry with many full-time staff workers, many departments including a training wing. Resource materials are now available in multiple languages including Hindi and English.

Presently EXCEL conducts thousands of VBS programs and hundreds of training sessions every year in many languages through online and onsite modes. More than half a million children and youth are reached every year to the development of the Kingdom and the glory of God!

We at Excel Ministries, believe that success is an ongoing journey and we continue on that road to process. The motto of the ministry is “To Excel in Christ".

Children love it. Churches desire it. Christians recommend it!

THE VBS PROGRAM - TRENDING #1

1. VBS THEME INTRODUCTION

Through Trending #1, we aim to teach the children and youth topics that are eternally Trending. Jesus Christ stands unique, forever stable, unwavering, and not subject to change. "With whom there is no variation or shifting shadow" (James 1:17). The essence of the theme is that Jesus Christ is number one, so we as his children, aim to be the best.

Trending #! is anchored in Hebrew 13:8 - "He is the same yesterday, today and forever". World history is the account of numerous fallen heroes. All of these heroes came and are now gone. But Jesus Christ, the Eternal Son of God, and the King of kings, still lives! Hell could not consume Him; Satan could not seduce Him; Death could not destroy Him, and the grave could not hold Him! He is eternally the Trending #1. He is still conquering the hearts of millions of people every day with His unconditional love.

2. VBS DAYS OVERVIEW
