Potluck Lunch on August 6th after the 10:30 Service

Who doesn’t love a church potluck lunch? Everyone is welcome! Bring something to share according to the starting letter of your last name: A-L bring a MAIN DISH; M-Q bring DESSERT; R-Z bring a SIDE DISH. Thanks to Sharla May and her team who are organizing these events this summer. It’s been a fun fellowship time for all!

On your way into service on August 27th, stop by the table in the lobby to pick up your name tag. We'll have a special time of greeting and meeting during our worship time together. We want to meet YOU!

Family Promise, August 27th-September 3rd

Family Promise is a ministry helping families experiencing homelessness achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response. VCN will host 1-3 families who will sleep in our fellowship hall for one week. Volunteers are needed to sleep one night at the church as hosts, from dinner time through the following morning. Volunteers are also needed to provide a healthy, delicious meal. Contact Sharla May through the Church Office to volunteer.
