Chapel Stained Glass repairs

This week Associated Crafts removed the two panels of stained glass from the Chapel that were damaged by storms last summer and temporarily replaced them with plywood. The repair process will take approximately 1-2 weeks. Once those panels are reinstalled, it will take an additional 2-3 weeks to bring all the Chapel stained glass window panels up to standard and complete additional repairs. Contact Kris for information: krisb@vpc.church

Master Plan Model

We invite you to come take a look at the model displayed in the Church Office. The VPC Master Plan Team and Jones Studio have envisioned a single primary worship space, a new heart for our campus, and a greatly improved facility for families, hospitality, and outreach. Without building any new structures, they have envisioned a way to reorganize and renew our existing spaces that accomplishes all these goals in a way that is beautiful and powerful. It is a transformational plan.
