Alpha Wednesday

Alpha is a program designed to create space for honest and open conversations about life’s biggest questions. It is a teaching and discussion-based biblical study that has an emphasis on the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Everyone is welcome and no questions are off limits! Alpha is by the Church, for the Church, and through the Church, but it is run worldwide in many settings—homes, cafés, restaurants, prisons, and more. VFC first ran Alpha in 2021, and began running Alpha contiguously in 2024. It serves as a great next step for anyone, regardless of where they are in their faith journey. Whether someone is new to our church, new to Christianity, has questions about the Holy Spirit, or is in search of an authentic community, Alpha is the perfect option. We have seen many stories of life change and total transformation come from Alpha.

God’s Blueprint for Work

Do you want to connect with other men who are serious about following Jesus at work? Inspired by Tim Keller’s Every Good Endeavor, this eight-session, discussion-based group meets to explore how our faith shapes our work, leadership, and identity. We’ll talk about real challenges like “How do we work “for the Lord” in a culture that often prioritizes self-promotion and success?” and “ What does it mean to be salt and light in a work setting?” This group is for men who want to be intentional about following Jesus where they spend most of their waking hours—at work. Whether you’re leading a company, starting your career, or somewhere in between, we’re here to encourage each other, grow in wisdom, and walk purposefully as Christ’s ambassadors in the workplace. A digital copy will be available for anyone interested. We meet at Jimmy’s Egg on Harrison.

Let's Go Girls

We rarely make time to hang out with the girls. We put our kids, work, chores, etc and rarely take/make the time. This time is so important though. So let's TAKE the time once a month to make sure we get away and hangout with the girls! SO many people tell me how hard it is to make friends (at all different ages/stages) and these meet ups allow an opportunity to meet women of all different ages that share the same faith. This group is for women ages 18 and above and we meet to do activities, crafts, play games, eat, hangout, etc. We will meet once a month on a Thursday night at 6:30 pm in the Garage at VFC Newcastle. Our first meeting will be Feb. 13th for our Galentines Celebration where we will make prayer journals, make personal bouquets, eat, and be reminded that Jesus' love is all we really need.
