FIRST STEPS at VBC
These STEPS will connect you to the MISSION
and CULTURE of VBC.
1. Peruse the VBC GUEST PACK and COMPLETE a VBC CONNECTION CARD.
Completing the VBC Connection Card (see below) allows you to submit prayer requests, receive our weekly Sunday's Coming email, sign up for groups, classes, or other happenings at VBC, as well as share Spiritual needs or decisions with the Pastors.
2. Attend a WELCOME to VBC luncheon. (scheduled regularly – see bulletin or Sunday's Coming for upcoming dates) This is an informal luncheon with the Pastors in the Fellowship Hall to welcome you to VBC. You will be given an overview of VBC and have the opportunity to ask questions about VBC. (approx.. 45 min.)
3. Attend the EXPLORING CHRISTIANITY module. This class provides an exploration of the basics of our Christian Faith, including an understanding of Salvation in Christ.
4. Attend the SEEKING BAPTISM module. God calls people to “repent and be Baptized”, and we encourage you to walk in obedience to His Word. This module will explain God’s Word regarding Baptism, and prepare you for Christian Baptism. (Schedule a meeting with a Pastor)
5. Join The SENT LAB. This is an 8-week class about God’s missional call for the church to be SENT to , “make disciples of all nations …”. In the class we will explore how Jesus was SENT, and follow His lead as we too are SENT "among the people, with the Gospel, to make Disciples, to gather the church". Participants will leave with practical tools for sharing the Gospel with others. (Watch the bulletin for a scheduled class)
