We're excited for this special time to come together during the season of Lent. Along with an extended time of worship, we will look to the life and teachings of Jesus through prayerful reflection on the Stations of the Cross. Many of us feel the weight of anxiety and fear as we journey through the current world. He was one who was not separate from our own suffering. We hope you will join us Friday, March 6 at 7pm.

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED.

Discover more of why and how God has shaped you for significance in His kingdom! In this afternoon class we will explore how God has uniquely shaped you with gifts, desires, skills, personality and experiences to make a unique contribution in the world. Lunch will be provided. Advance registration is required. Childcare is free if you register by the previous Sunday. 

If you are between the ages of 18-36, join us in the Station (north parking lot) on February 15 at 8:30am. We’ll then carpool to Los Liones Trail near Santa Monica for a great morning hike followed with lunch! Contact Willoughby with questions 209-298-0414.

For those newer to the Vineyard who are desiring to explore or establish deeper connection and commitment, we encourage you to join us for this lunch and talk which will provide an overview of who we are, who we are called to become and how we move forward in embracing our calling as a church community.  Childcare is free if you register by the previous Sunday. 

Topics include:

• Why we exist

• The bigger picture of what the Vineyard is about

• What God has called us to be (our vision)

• How You can be a meaningful part of God's calling in this time and place

You also will be able to freely ask questions concerning these and other topics.

The class allows you the opportunity to meet the entire Westside Vineyard staff and several key leaders.
