RECOGNIZING ALL OUR LADIES! SUNDAY, MAY 10
We look forward to honoring all our moms and ladies — as we CELEBRATE JESUS! (He IS the reason we’re gathering.) A wonderful photo opportunity will be available, and all the ladies will receive a simple, heartfelt gift. OUR ENTIRE CHURCH BODY WILL BE BLESSED!
MOVIE NIGHTS BEGIN MAY 15!
We’re starting with a red-carpet special … “The Ten Commandments.” Can you believe it’s the 70th anniversary of this amazing movie! We will start at 5 PM with a light supper (hot dogs)/snacks, and there will be an intermission. More to follow.
SAVE THE DATES …
Summer Supper Club is coming soon. Save the dates: June 12, July 10, and August 14, 2026. Signups for hosting and participation started on May 3, between services. There is no program … we’re keeping it simple, just dinner, hospitality, and conversation. You must sign up by May 31.
GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO CLEAN OUT & HELP OUT…
Our dear sister, Lucinda Vasquez, is moving from her boat to a new residence in Oakview on June 1, 2026. She needs several household items & furniture. Please take a look at the bulletin board, across from the church office, to see if you can help. It’s a GREAT time for spring cleaning … a win-win situation!
WBS REGISTRATION HAS STARTED…More books have arrived.
Ladies, it’s time to sign up for our next Women’s Bible Study series. You can sign up on Sunday mornings or on Wednesdays, during WBS. The study, by Amir Tsarfati and Dr. Rick Yohn, is “Exploring Ezekiel.” The cost for the study is $20.
NEXT GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP… May 12
You are invited to join Paul Lenderman on Tuesday, May 12, at 3:15 PM for a time of grief counseling.

This free event brings hope and promise to those experiencing the grieving process. “Where Compassion Makes a Difference”

VJF PRAYER ROOM IS OPEN
The front [corner] office has been refreshed to become VJF’s new PRAYER ROOM. What’s the purpose of a prayer room? It is a dedicated space where people can find moments of quietness as they connect with God individually or with a small group. The PRAYER ROOM will serve as a reminder of the importance of prayer in the life of a believer and in the life of our church. Our desire is for the PRAYER ROOM to be a POWER-PACKED PRAYER ROOM – where intentional praise and sincere intercession happen and we seek God’s will, not our own.
