Our Strategy
Visit - We invite everyone to visit a service or community group. We have all been visitors before and our goal is to greet everyone friendly and make all who visit feel welcome.
Connect - We believe that true growth in God is greatly benefitted by connection to a local church. After visiting, we want connection with the people of VCC to be easy through our events, outings, and community groups.
Commit - We see partnership as a commitment to help us reach the calling that God has placed on us as a church. By committing to give (of our time, talent, & treasure) and serve (in some ministry of VCC), we are partnering together for a higher purpose in God’s Kingdom.
