YOUR FOOD BASKET DONATIONS . . . .
The children of VCC were able to put together 2 “Christmas Baskets” and have them delivered to families who were greatly appreciative of your outpouring of love and generosity. This will help them in celebrating God’s gift of His Son … and the gift He gives us in the fellowship of His church.
10:00 Sunday Morning . . . Christmas Day Worship
When we celebrate Christmas, we’re recognizing the birth of Jesus The Christ The
coming of: The Promised One, The Anointed One, The Messiah . . . He is “God With Us” . . .
and God’s Gift to Us.
Christmas Day I want to talk to you about the gifts God sent to you through Jesus Christ,
His Son. Gifts that are life changing . . .
And did you know that there are some things God wants us to bring Him this year? He
has an awesome “Exchange Plan” worked out for us . . . join us this Sunday as we take a closer
look at the details. I look forward to celebrating with you then.

Pastor John continues his series on picking things up and putting them down. This week he teaches from Luke 10:38-42
“I PICK THINGS UP AND PUT THEM DOWN” … part II
It’s easy for us to substitute “busyness” and “accomplishing” this time of year in the place of Worship and celebration. Researchers tell us that 90%of us will spend this time in a frenzy of hurriedness yet we will live this time in memories of the past or concerns of the future.
How can we capture this time and this moment where we can draw closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ without getting involved in the entrapments of the world. We truly live in a time where it is “the world versus the manger.”
Join us Sunday morning as we study Jesus words for choosing what is best.
I look forward to meeting with you then.
Luke 10:41-42

Pastor John teaches from John 14:25-27 on the topic of picking things up and putting them down. In this Christmas season we so often get caught up in the business of things that we forget what the season is really about.

I PICK THINGS UP AND PUT THEM DOWN
This time of year we usually start deviating from the “norms” of life, and as that Big Day approaches (Christmas of course) we sometimes grow more frantic and frazzled! As this change happens, oftentimes our pace and priorities change – new ones replace the old ones. And even though we tell ourselves that it is “just for the season,” things snowball and all of a sudden . . .we begin to realize that we no longer have what Jesus came to give us … peace.
How can we safeguard ourselves against losing the Peace of God at this most joyful of times! Let’s Talk!
