Building for Family Info Meetings
An exciting future is before us! As we move into Phase 2 of our Building for Family project, we'd love for you to join us at one of our upcoming informational meetings to learn more.
For almost six decades, this church has been a place of worship where our community can come to know and experience God's love. Phase 2 is how we continue that mission—making, maturing, and mobilizing apprentices of Jesus—into the next generation.
At the meetings, you'll have the chance to:
Discover the full scope of the project
Understand the vision and the "why" behind it
Ask any questions you may have
Learn how you can make a difference by partnering with us
Whether you're new to our church family or have been here for years, come and be part of the story.

Sunday, September 13 | 12:45-1:45 PM | Valley Community Church
Thursday, September 17 | 7-8 PM | Inklings Common Room
Sunday, September 20 | 12:45-1:45 PM | Valley Community Church

Vision Night
For 58 years, VCC has been part of God's faithful work in the Tri-Valley. Each year, around this time, we pause to look back with gratitude and look forward with vision—and this year is no exception.
Formerly known as our Annual Business Meeting, this is an evening of information and inspiration. We'll share ministry highlights and our vision for the new fiscal year, along with the budget and an update on the Building for Family project.
RSVP today. We hope to see you there!
Baptism Sunday
Baptism is a public way of showing that we belong to Jesus. It symbolizes being washed clean from sin and stepping into new life with Him. The Bible teaches that when we put our faith in Jesus, we are forgiven and receive the Holy Spirit—baptism is an outward sign of that inward transformation (Acts 2:38).
Baptism doesn't make us right with God; it's a response to the faith we already have. The water represents cleansing, but it's our trust in Jesus that brings forgiveness (1 Peter 3:21). It's also an act of obedience and a declaration that we’re committed to following Him.
To help you prepare, we will offer a baptism class on Sunday, May 17 from 10-10:45 AM in the VCC Conference Room.
Ready to take this step? Sign up today!

We’ll also take time to get to know you and hear your story because building meaningful connections is at the heart of what we do.
