Vacation Bible School was reinvented at a number of Hancock County churches this summer.
While some congregations canceled the annual event amid COVID-19 concerns, others opted to carry on with a different format, such as moving it outdoors or going virtual.
Those going virtual often packaged lesson materials and craft supplies in kits that were handed out drive-thru style before the VBS sessions began.

It changed the look of the annual event; for example, a VBS highlights video played the next Sunday morning might feature photos and videos captured by parents of their children following along in their living rooms.
But some organizers said it also allowed a wider group of children to tune in.
