About Us

We believe that spiritual growth happens best in the context of authentic relationships.


Through our small groups, discipleship programs, and educational opportunities, we provide a space for individuals to deepen their understanding of God's Word, ask tough questions, and grow together as a community of faith.

Our Mission & Values

We are committed to living out the values of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our mission to help people take their next step toward Christ.


Loving God

In addition to our weekly worship services together, Village Community Church encourages each person to spend time reading scripture and seeking God in prayer. This can be as a part of VCC's small groups, in private devotional time, or as a part of both.


Connecting with Others

We believe that God created humans for relationship with God, with others, and with all creation. As a result, it is our practice to gather together every Sunday for worship and to connect with the VCC faith community throughout the week. We also desire to connect with others around us, sharing God's love and joy with everyone we meet.


Serving the World

We believe that the natural expression of our faith is to help and serve others. While VCC has opportunities to serve together, our regular attenders are also encouraged to serve and show compassion to people in the communities we live in and around the world.

Our Beliefs

Who We Are

We are a part of the Church of the Nazarene, a Protestant Christian church in the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition, tracing its roots to an anniversary date of 1908. It was founded to spread the message of scriptural holiness (Christ-like living) to all the world. Today the Church of the Nazarene is active in 151 world areas.


The Church of the Nazarene is a Great Commission church. We believe that God offers to everyone forgiveness, peace, joy, purpose, love, meaning in life, and the promise of heaven when life is over by entering and experiencing a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. We are called to take this message to people everywhere.


The Church of the Nazarene is also a holiness church. We believe that Christians can experience a deeper level of life in which there is victory over sin, power to witness and serve, and a richer fellowship with God, all through the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

Our Beliefs

We invite you to explore our beliefs and join us in our pursuit of living out our faith in boldness and passion.

  • The Trinity

    We believe in the Trinity, which is the doctrine that God is one, existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The three persons of the Trinity are distinct and unified, co-existing in perfect harmony and working together to create and sustain the world. We recognize that since God is the Creator and the source of all life, He exists in three persons who are distinct yet united, understanding each other completely and working together to bring about His plans for humanity. We believe that the Trinity is an essential part of understanding God and His purpose for us. By embracing the Trinity, we can have a deeper relationship with the Lord and better understand His will for our lives.

  • The Bible

    We believe in the divine inspiration of the Bible, that it is the true and inspired word of God. We believe that the Bible is our standard for life, and its truth, integrity, and relevance is of utmost importance. The Bible is not just a book, but a living guide, full of God’s wisdom and guidance. Through scripture, we learn about God’s character, how to live and act, and how to grow in our spiritual journey. We believe that by reading and studying the Bible, we are able to draw closer to God and deepen our understanding of His love.

  • Jesus

    We believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is the central figure of Christianity, the Word of God made flesh. Jesus was sent by God to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins so that we could enjoy an eternal life with Him. Jesus’ teachings on love, forgiveness, humility, and repentance are at the core of our beliefs. We also believe in Jesus’ resurrection, that it was proof of His deity and the promise of eternal life for all those who believe. We are called to follow Jesus, to live lives of holiness, and to share the good news of the gospel. As we learn to love and serve others, we are reminded of Jesus’ example of love and sacrifice.

  • Salvation

    We believe in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus was sent by God to save us and give us eternal life. Salvation is only possible through faith in Jesus and repentance of our sins. We understand that we are saved through grace and not by any works of our own. The Bible teaches us that no matter what mistakes we make, God’s love and grace are always available to us. We believe that through accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are able to have the assurance of salvation and the promise of eternal life with God.

  • Baptism

    We believe in the importance of baptism. Baptism symbolizes a believer's commitment to Jesus and His teachings, and is an outward act of confessing our faith in Him. We believe that baptism is essential to Christian discipleship, and it is a beautiful way to proclaim our allegiance to Jesus. Baptism is a sacred and meaningful experience, and we are deeply committed to helping believers celebrate this important milestone in their journey of faith. By celebrating and honoring baptism, we are proclaiming our faith in Jesus and our desire to serve Him and others.

  • Holy Spirit

    We believe in the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the unifying power between God and humanity, and is the source of our comfort, guidance, and strength. The Holy Spirit helps us to understand and appreciate the Bible, and helps us to live out its teachings in our lives. We believe that the Holy Spirit is with us always, faithfully guiding us in our walk with God. We also believe that the Holy Spirit gives us gifts such as wisdom, knowledge, understanding, healing, miracles, tongues, and prophecy so that we can be used to serve God and spread His love.

  • The Church

    We believe in the Christian doctrinal belief of The Church. We believe that the Church is a holy assembly of believers, united in faith and love. We strive to be a community of believers who are united in our faith in Jesus Christ and in our commitment to serve Him and His kingdom. We are committed to loving God and loving others, and to be known for our love for one another. We believe that the Church is a body of believers who are called to serve and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to all people. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we seek to be faithful disciples of Jesus and to follow His teachings. We strive to live out our faith through loving actions and service to our community and the world.

  • Prayer

    We believe in the power of prayer, both individually and corporately, as an expression of faith in God's work in our lives. Prayer is an essential part of a Christian life and is used to talk to God and to communicate with Him. We pray for guidance, strength, healing, protection, and for our families, friends, and community. Through prayer, we seek to deepen our understanding of God's will and His plans for our lives. Praying helps us grow closer to God and to gain a better understanding of His will and how we can best serve Him. When we pray, we open ourselves up to God and He will answer us in His own way and in His own time. Prayer is a beautiful and powerful way to communicate with our Heavenly Father and to seek His love and guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions

    At VCC our worship experience is intended to connect people to God with a vibrant but laid-back atmosphere all who come will feel welcome. The services begin at 10:00 am and are usually an hour long. Our Children's ministry (Kidsville) is offered during the service as well.

    Guests are encouraged to come, relax, and enjoy. Guests are invited, but never forced, to fill out a Guest Form. This helps us know how we can better serve you and what you thought of your time spent at VCC. We hope that you find VCC to be a place where you feel very welcome but ultimately where you can sense God is near. Come check us out, we would love to meet you!

  • What should I wear to Village Community Church?

    Come as you are! Some people wear casual clothes, some wear dress clothes, and others are more comfortable in jeans or shorts. At Village Community Church we will accept you as you are, so dress as you feel comfortable.

  • What is your style of music?

    Worship music can be very preference driven. It's impossible to have one style that suits everyone. The reality is that much of our musical tastes are influenced by the kind of music we grew up with. At VCC, we have made an attempt to focus on heart-felt worship. Our worship should be all about God, not our own wants and desires. We do have a Worship Pastor, a team of vocalists, and a worship band. We sing worship choruses and hymns arranged in innovative ways. At times it is upbeat, and at other times it's more reflective. Our prayer is that our worship is pleasing to God and focused on Him.

  • What is your preaching/teaching like?

    Sermons are prayerfully designed to introduce people to God's love and purpose for their lives. They are Bible-driven and practical. You would also find it to be refreshingly relevant and real. Bible verses are displayed on the screen to help you follow along. We believe God still changes lives, and healthy Christians are growing and making daily decisions to live God-honoring lives. If you are far from God or a deeply-rooted Christian, there will be something for you.

  • What do I do with my kids during church service?

    Our Children, grades K-5, are cared for and ministered to by screened volunteers in "Kidsville" during the morning worship hour. We begin with activity-based, age-appropriate small groups, and then the children all come together for a large group worship and activity. After this, they return to their small groups for a discussion time with more games and/or crafts that re-emphasize the lesson for the week.


    High School and Middle School ministries join the main worship service then gather together in the lobby for a lesson and to connect during the sermon on Sundays.

  • How do I connect to Village Community Church?

    Dive into Village Community Church! There's a big difference in being a weekend attendee and being part of the church body. Village Community Church does not want to simply generate a crowd, but we are to be the body of Jesus Christ. We want to help you take your next step toward Christ and toward community.


    There are many opportunities to engage, but here are a few that we invite everyone that calls VCC their church home to participate in:


    1. Attend our Sunday gathering

    2. Join a Connect Group

    3. Find a place of ongoing service at VCC - God uses ordinary people to share His love and grace.

    Pray about these things and join us in being the community we are called to be!

  • What do your services "feel" like?

    The services feel exciting, warm, and friendly all at the same time. Many people comment about how they can sense God's Spirit at work. We make a special attempt to creatively communicate God's purpose for your life every weekend. Our hope is that people are engaged emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. We want people to truly experience God's message for them each Sunday. In addition to great worship music, we may at times use drama, video, and other media during the service. However, everything we do is always concentrated on the Bible. We want God and His Word to be the center of our attention.
