At “Destination Dig,” kids will unearth more than just dirt. They’ll discover real-life archaeological finds that have helped to uncover the truth about Jesus. Stories from the Bible will leap off the pages as kids explore where Jesus walked, and examine artifacts that bring the world of the Bible to life. As junior archaeologists, kids will study tangible pieces of the past to learn the truth about who Jesus is and why he came. Each evening, kids will make crafts, play fun games, enjoy tasty snacks, sing cool songs and learn about missions. This week of fun, food and exciting learning opportunities is free of charge and open to everyone.
