Ministry for adults
In addition to our home groups, we have intentional ministries for both men and women. Our men's and women's ministries are different (cause let's face it, we're a little different), so take a look at the ministry descriptions below and connect with our office at 805-688-5171 to get plugged in.
women's ministry
Our desire is to provide women with opportunities to grow close to the Lord, their families, and each other through prayer, Bible study, service, fellowship and outreach. Opportunities for fellowship and relationship building are available through specially announced meetings and theme events. A foundation of the Women's Ministries is Bible study. There are a couple, ongoing studies open to all women: Thursday Morning book or bible study, 8:45-11:30am which meets at a home in Santa Ynez. Childcare is available. Also, there is a Thurs Morning Study at 6:00am led by Deby Geiger at Ellen's Restaurant in Buellton. Our women's ministry also serves the church by meeting the needs of sick and grieving families with meals and other services. For more information, contact the church office at office@vcfconnect.org or by calling at 805-688-5171.
Men's Ministry
We are currently in the process of setting up some new Men's Groups at VCF. If you are interested in being a part of one of those groups, please contact Jon Firey at jfirey@mac.com for more details. More information coming soon!
Set Free: A Recovery Ministry
TUesdays, 6:30pm
The Bible clearly states "All have sinned." This means each of us needs repentance and recovery from hurts, hang-ups, and bad habits, in order to live our lives, the way God intended.
SET FREE is a Christ-based ministry that addresses all types of healing and recovery- divorce, anger, alcohol, drugs, relationship challenges, eating disorders, forgiveness issues- anything that you feel out of control over. We need God to help transform our issues into something beautiful that He can use to glorify His Kingdom and SET US FREE!
