LEGO Time 2026

Last year Pastor Mike and 6 volunteers brought LEGO Time to Camp J.O.Y., a summer camp for children Kindergarten-4th grade held at Our Savior Lutheran Church, Buffalo (26 Brunswick Blvd). We had a great time interacting with the children and playing with LEGO!

We have been asked to come again this year!

Camp J.O.Y. is July 6-August 14, 2026.

LEGO Time is once a week on Thursdays from 9:30-11:30am.
July 9, 16, 23, 30, August 6, 13

What do we do at LEGO Time?

  • Children are divided into 3 groups – Kindergarten, 1-2 Grade and 3-4 Grade. (2 volunteers for each group)
  • Use a pre-planned activity that includes a Bible Story and an activity using LEGO.
  • LEGO activities are based more on creative play time than on technical building skills. There is usually a challenge or goal they are trying to create like an activity done with bricks or a scene to tell a story. 
  • Interact with the children as they create things with LEGO (and maintain order)
  • Encourage the children and get to know them. Foster a positive spirit.
  • NO LEGO experience is necessary. We are encouraging creativity not technical skill. 
We need 6 adult volunteers for each Thursday. You can volunteer for one or more of the dates – don’t have to commit to all 6 sessions. Volunteers need to be 18 years old and older, enjoy spending time with children, and are willing to “play with toys!”

Please use the form below to Volunteer.

How to help if you can’t volunteer?

  • Financial Donation – we would like to purchase a small LEGO set for each child and would like to raise $500 to help with purchasing the sets. Any amount is appreciated. See below for more information.
  • Donate used LEGO bricks – If you have LEGO taking up storage and collecting dust we would gladly take them and put them to good use.
  • Pray that we are able to cover all 6 sessions with volunteers and that we will have a good time with the children sharing the love of Jesus!
