week of May 20, 2018
The momentum is building and VPC has begun making the plans for our campus a reality. Hundreds of people have committed over $6.5 million dollars toward Phase One of A New Heart for the Valley. This is great news! God is at work in our community as many are making this a spiritual and charitable priority. An additional $6 million is needed to complete the vision for A New Heart for the Valley. It will take the whole congregation, committing however they can.
