ELEMENTARY TEACHING TEAM
Join Our Elementary Teaching Team for 10 AM Worship! Our Children’s Education Ministry is dedicated to raising up faithful disciples of Jesus. As the body of Christ, we’re called to walk alongside our young people, helping them know they belong to God. That means being present with them, seeing them, and knowing them.
As we prepare for the new school year in September, we’re looking to build a team of 12 passionate and caring teachers who will serve together — supporting one another and growing in community—as you journey with the children from September through June.
What’s Involved:
Team Teaching: Two teachers per grade (Grades 1–6) working together throughout the term
Flexible Format: Co-teach or alternate weeks—whatever works best for you and your teammate
Shorter Serving Time: 10:30 – 11:15 AM (begin your morning with worship in Bethel Chapel from 10–10:30 AM)
Training & Support:
Orientation in August to get familiar with curriculum and expectations
Ongoing check-ins for encouragement and support
Access to a pool of supply teachers for backup when needed
We believe this change will be transformative — not just for our children, but for everyone who serves.
Would you prayerfully consider joining us? Please reach out to Rev Khang, Elder Jessica or Yoyo if you are interested or have any questions.

Summer praise & Prayer
We invite you our next praise and prayer night on Saturday, July 19th in the Bethel Chapel. This will be the second of three evenings where we'll be gathering as a church family to worship, pray, and seek God together.
These nights are being hosted by our Praise Team and Discipleship Ministry, and our hope is simple: that we would grow closer to God and to one another, together, through songs of praise and prayer.
Dates: June 21, July 19, Aug 16
Time: 7:00 PM
Location: Bethel Chapel (EM Chapel)
SMP At vcc (Saturday morning prayer)
Beginning Saturday, June 7th at 8:30 AM, we’ll gather each Saturday morning through the summer to pray together. These times will be simple and welcoming - returning to the basics, and grow in our confidence and joy in being with God.
Why prayer? Because prayer is how we learn to be with Jesus—to sit in His presence, to listen, to speak, to rest. It’s how we are formed by His heart and become more like Him. And it’s through prayer that we receive strength and guidance to do what He did—loving others, walking in obedience, and joining God in His work in the world.
Meal train for TCM missions team!
The missions team will be serving at the Sonshine Day Camp, a seven week summer program for children to spend their days in a fun, safe, and loving environment taking part in various activities such as games, Bible time, field trips, swimming, and praise and worship.
If you would like to support the missions team by providing one dinner meal through the week, please visit the link below.
Reading scripture together Continues!
We are continuing reading scripture together and heading next into the Gospel of John. The new schedule will begin on April 4th and will be returning to reading full books of the bible. See the schedule below.
yam weekly
The Young Adults Ministry will continue to hose weekly fellowship gatherings as we work to build a stronger more intentional community. Whether you’re new or have been with us for a while, we’d love for you to join as we grow together in faith and friendship.
Every 1st Sunday will be reading scripture together.
Every 2nd Sunday will pray together guided by scripture.
Every 3rd Sunday will be a fellowship event.
The last Sunday will be reserved for rest with no formal schedule.
All are welcome!
FOODBANK DONATIONS (during communion)
We will be collecting food item donations for our local food banks during Sundays when we host Communion (first Sunday of each month). As we come to the table of Communion and break bread together, we also remember people in our local community who are experiencing food insecurity.
This a list of food items that have specifically been requested by our local food bank. We ask that you prayerfully consider picking up an item on this list during your next trip to the grocery store, and bring it with you on Sundays leading up to Communion Service.
If you have any questions, please connect with Abigaille Alpay.
