Its been exciting to see Village Church develop over the last year. From 16 people meeting in my home in April to now more than 40 people being on-board as volunteers and ready to serve come Launch Sunday (January 24, 2010).
God has been doing some amazing things among us. He has brought people around the vision of VC who are passionate about partnering with Jesus to love and reach this city.
People have asked us about how they can get behind and support the church right now, even before we launch. The following are three simple ways you can get involved in this great movement God is doing.
Support: 3 Ways
Serving: We envision starting Village Church with 50 volunteers serving in different capacities (worship ministries, welcoming, set-up/take-down crew etc.,). If you feel that God is directing you to help us launch by serving in any way, email us (info@myvillagechurch.org) and let us know.
Prayer: Pray for the leaders of Village Church. That God would give us wisdom, and insight as we seek to accomplish the specific mission God has given to us as a church. Pray for the community which surrounds us as well: that many people who do not know Jesus would come to know him as Lord, Savior and Treasure through the people and ministries of Village Church.
Financially: People have asked us about how they can help support us financially. We have been very careful in answering that question because we wanted to develop the most precise budget we could in order to accomplish the goals God has given us. After a lot of research and prayer we now have a clear picture of what we need in order to start Village Church.
Available to you upon request (info@myvillagechurch.org) is a budget complete with a detailed list of items (with prices) which include children's ministry equipment, community promotions, music/tech equipment, and a variety of other costs in order to best serve South Surrey and the surrounding districts with the gospel of Jesus.
Our deep desire is to see lives transformed to live for Jesus. These are ways you can partner with us as we begin this amazing missional work.
