One of the worst things about attending a church
for the first time is not knowing what to EXPECT.
Face it: we've all
walked into churches for the first time only to decide within
minutes that we won't be back. At VVUMC, we believe church should
be a place where the entire family can come worship God, learn the
Bible, and have a good time. So, we have designed VVUMC with your
family in mind.
We have tried to anticipate most of
the questions you may have regarding VVUMC - we hope this
helps!
Will I be welcome at VVUMC?
[TOP]
VVUMC is conveniently
located at 15150 La Paz Drive in Victorville, CA 92395. Click here to see
a map.
Our weekly Sunday morning worship services begins at 8:00 (Casual Worship), 9:00 (Contemporary Worship) and 10:30 AM (Traditional Worship.
However,
We suggest arriving 15-20 minutes before the
service and get to know some of our members. Be sure
to look for our visitor parking spots close to the building when you
arrive...
Simply, whatever you like. Don't give a second
thought to what you're wearing. We're more concerned with meeting
your real life needs than what you wear. So dress in whatever you
feel comfortable in and just relax and enjoy being around friends.
So, blue jeans and business suits are all welcome! Everyone has their own style, so you will
notice everything from slacks and ties to jeans and t-shirts. It's a mixture that shows our uniqueness and freedom to be who God
created us to be!
Will I have to stand up in front of people?

Your children will love VVUMC ! We provide fun, hands-on Bible lessons and activities
every Sunday morning designed especially to help them learn the
truths of the Bible. We also provide a safe, cozy nursery for
infants through pre-school. Our children's ministry leaders are
parents just like you who value every child and treat them with the
utmost care and attention.
Our ministry is designed for the whole family.
During our morning worship service, we provide a children's church..
At VVUMC, it is our sincere desire to share
God's Word in all its truth without watering anything down, but to
do it in love, and in ways that are interesting, engaging and
relevant to your daily life. While the Bible certainly does convict
us of our sin in order to point out our lost condition, the
overarching theme of the entire Bible is God's unconditional love
for all humankind, as is shown by God sending His precious Son,
Jesus Christ, to pay the price for our sin. If you attend one of our
services, you will hear the truths of God's Word presented
passionately, clearly, and lovingly in ways that will make sense to
you. Come expecting to learn something from biblical
messages that can be applied to your everyday living. What you learn
on Sunday, you'll be able to use throughout the week and know that
it came from the Bible.
It is our desire to provide a passionate, contemporary and
upbeat style of music. We also blend our music with a balance of
worshipful and meditative songs to help people connect with God in
an intimate way.
What kind of church are you? [TOP]
Based on their feedback, it is clear that
newcomers experience VVUMC as a friendly, safe, comfortable place to be. Preaching
and teaching are Biblical and balanced, leaders are not overbearing
but committed to serve, children are well cared for, and everyone
feels the openness, comfort and encouragement of a caring Christian
fellowship. Most newcomers find that friends are easily made. Many
of us live alone or far from relatives, or come from difficult
family backgrounds, so VVUMC serves for many as a healthy
Christian family.
For many, the Cluster Groups become a hub for living the
Christian life. Participation is high and we encourage every member
of VVUMC Christian Fellowship to consider becoming a part of a
VVUMC Cluster Group. Click here for more information.
Sunday school for all ages is at 9:00 AM each
Sunday morning. Through Sunday School classes, in addition to learning
from the Bible, you can connect with others at similar
stages of life; people will encourage you with you becoming an
encouragement to others.
We celebrate the Lord's Supper on the first Sunday of every
month.

opportunities to grow as Follower of Jesus Christ !
Victorville United Methodist Church There are several convenient ways to get your Prayer Request to
our Prayer Team:
- Contact the church office at (760) 245-7902
Who should I contact to find out about being
baptized? [TOP]
We regularly have baptismal services at VVUMC, to find out when the next service is, contact
the church office at (760) 245-7902. If you would like more
information on what baptism is, please fill out one of the blue "Hey Bob" notes provided in the pews.
We conduct informal meetings for newcomers on a regular basis. You
will hear from church leaders regarding the
vision, beliefs, and structure of VVUMC . We've
designed these meetings to acquaint you with our mission and
practices.
You can fill
out a membership application and turn it in to the church office, or
you may give your application to one of our greeters at any church
service. All believers in Jesus Christ who have been scripturally
baptized are eligible candidates for membership. Please click here for more information on how to become a member.
At VVUMC you do not have to be a member to
participate in any area of worship! We offer many events and
opportunities to the community and encourage participation by all
members and non-members. Membership is important though and we offer
sessions that allow people interested in
connecting with VVUMC in more significant ways
to get plugged in.
Great question! If you know much about
Christianity, our belief system would be similar to most evangelical
churches. We believe there is one God made up of the Father, Jesus Christ,
and the Holy Spirit. We believe the Bible is God's Word and that it
is useful for applying to our lives in the 21st Century. We believe
that God loved people like you and us so much that he sent Jesus Christ to
teach us and then to save us from our sins.
If you don't agree with these beliefs, that's okay! You are still welcome at VVUMC . We want to help people see why these beliefs are important and can actually aid you in your daily life. Keep in mind that we aren't going to be changing our beliefs on these important areas, but we aren't afraid to talk about them with you either. If you want to know more, you can read more about our beliefs. You will find VVUMC to be a loving church where freedom in Jesus Christ is
practiced. But, at the same time, you can rest in knowing that we
are also a church that holds unswervingly to God's precious Word in
order to provide a solid anchor for your family during these
changing times.
Feel free to contact us, and we'll be happy to answer your
questions.
