From Online Services to In-Person Services
Beginning Easter Day, April 4
We are getting ready to be back in our physical worship space together! We will begin this transition in the month of April by gathering in-person to watch our pre-recorded services. This weekly event will begin on Easter Sunday! While most of our service will be pre-recorded, the sermons will be taught live and streamed simultaneously to our online service watchers at home. The RSVP link for each Sunday will be sent one week in advance. The weekly RSVP’s will close the Thursday of that week.
**Please look for the RSVP link for our first in-person service viewing this Sunday, March 28, for the in-person service on April 4.

Spring 2021 Giving Campaign
March 3 - April 14
Did you know that, on average, almost 35,000 vehicles pass our campus each day? Did you hear that a recent COVID vaccination clinic run by Washington County authorities used most of our campus, and we provided snacks, drinks, and lunches to over 70 volunteers using our facility? Did you know approximately 2,000 people engage with our online services each week? As we reopen, what will a first-time visitor see and feel?
We believe in Biblical hospitality which welcomes the “stranger” with open arms. Your gift will help us make key improvements to give a better first impression of our care and love.

Spiritual Journey: Passion Week
March 29 - April 2, 7am - 7pm, Village Sanctuary
This is a week where we take time to reflect and deeply consider the road Jesus walked to redeem a broken world. Where we normally focus on the events in Jesus' life, we are going to experience the passion week of Christ through the eyes of Simon Peter. Step in to each scene in the place of Peter, quieting your mind and heart to observe, listen and reflect.
Each alcove comes with prompts and activities. These are recommendations of how you may spend your time.
A few things to note:
- Please keep your face mask on at all times while inside the building.
- Please be mindful of others in the space with you; while we have intentionally created space between each participant, we ask that you maintain safe distance and wait until the person in the alcove ahead of you has left it.

Village Family Camp Update
Last year, due to COVID-19, we had to pivot from our tradition of Village Family Camp weekend at the coast and instead came together for Village Family Camp-ish right here on campus. We are unable to safely offer Family Camp weekend at the coast again this year, but are planning an all ages, everyone invited day of Village fun at our church on Saturday, August 7, 2021. If you would like to join our fun times planning team, please email Cori Christian.
For those Villagers who have made Family Camp a personal tradition, please know that we have intentionally planned our on campus event for the first weekend of August to ensure that you can still plan camping with your pod of family and friends.
