CONNECTING PEOPLE TO JESUS, INDIVIDUALLY, COLLECTIVELY, AND GLOBALLY. CONNECTING PEOPLE TO JESUS, INDIVIDUALLY, COLLECTIVELY, AND GLOBALLY. OUR VISION C2J (Connect to Jesus): Our vision is to have a vibrant and transformative community connected to Jesus and one another. We are committed to moving individuals through a dynamic journey of spiritual growth. This journey encompasses three pivotal movement points: Connecting, Connected, and Connector. We pray that in future days, through connection to Jesus, we will see a community of believers who live out Jesus’ model of one-by-one discipleship. We will see this discipleship taking place inside our church walls and within neighborhoods, workplaces, and homes. “Not only will one by one discipleship be moving in this place but we will be a transformative place of worship…”. With a movement of discipleship and transforming worship, we will connect to Jesus and others beyond our walls and into Buchanan County where we will resource the suffering, be a support to the hurting, and love the broken back to Jesus.” OUR HISTORY The Vansant Church of Christ began in 1957. The congregation has continued to grow and reach people for the cause of Christ. VCC has served not only locally in the Vansant area but also in many mission fields throughout the world. In our laboring for Christ, we have assisted in starting other congregations in Virginia, Mexico, and India. Core Values/Behaviors At our church, we believe that our identity defines our actions. When we understand who we are in Christ, we gain clarity on how to live out our faith. These five guiding principles, drawn from the teachings of Jesus in the Gospels, serve as our foundation. They inspire, encourage, and direct us as we strive to fulfill our mission now and in the years ahead. Abiding with Jesus We will be more than Sunday Christians; we will remain connected to Jesus through His word, prayer, and the Holy Spirit in everything. Washers of Feet We will not be people who warm seats but actively love, serve, and reach those we encounter. Worship in Spirit & Truth We will do what we were created to do: worship. It is more than singing songs; it's about knowing the character of God, joining together in community, and being authentic people. Elevate the Timothys We will see the importance of raising others up by growing their walk with Jesus. From our children and our students to those we see with great potential, we will equip them for the work of the ministry. Empower Generosity We will return what belongs to the Lord by giving our time, resources, and finances to meet our ministry's needs.

Ministries To fulfill the mission and vision of our church, we use ministries to be the hands and feet of all that we do. See below the ways in which we seek to connect people to Jesus. Kids Some say that our kids are the church of tomorrow, but we believe they are the church of today. Let's help connect our kids to Jesus. Learn more about Kids Ministry Students Our student ministry is made up of middle school and high school. We love connecting our students to Jesus and one another.

Our Beliefs... Our beliefs shape, influence and define the things that are important to us. Our beliefs are rooted an d based on Scripture. Our beliefs do not change, but our methods of communicating them and inspiring people to live by them will change as needed. What We Believe At the core of our beliefs, we must always live by these great words from scripture: In matters of faith we have unity - Ephesians 4:4-6 , Romans 15:5 In matters of opinion we have liberty - Romans 14:1, 4, 12, 22 In all matters love - 1 John 4:7 , I Corinthians 13:2 & 13 . As we strive for unity in issues of faith, liberty when it comes to opinion, and love in all matters, God will be lifted up and His church will prevail! Our Core Biblical Beliefs God - We believe there is one God; who is the creator of all things, unchanging, perfect in holiness, wisdom, and love. He exists forever as three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (Acts 17:24-30 , Hebrews 11:3 , James 1:17 ). Jesus Christ - We believe in Jesus Christ God's one and only son. We believe he was born of a virgin, both fully human and fully divine. We believe he lived a sinless life suffering and dying on a Roman cross. He was the perfect sacrifice for our sin-filled lives. We believe He rose bodily from the dead on the third day and will return to earth one day to judge both the living and the dead (1 John 4:9 , Luke 1:26-38 , Luke 23:1-46 , 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 , Acts 10:39-42 ). Holy Spirit - We believe in the Holy Spirit, who is active in both the world and Christians today. We believe he convicts the world of sin and their need for forgiveness in Christ. We believe He comes to live in those who accept Jesus as their Savior. He guides, instructs, and empowers the Christ follower in spiritual growth, daily living, and service to Jesus Christ (John 16:5-15 , Acts 2:38 , Romans 8:26-27 ). Bible - We believe the Bible, both Old and New Testament to be the inspired word of God, and without error. The scriptures are the final authority for all matters of Christian faith and practice (1 Corinthians 2:12-13 , 2 Timothy 3:14-17 , 2 Peter 1:20-21 ). Humanity - We believe all people were created uniquely by God in His image to have a relationship with Him. We believe man and woman have separated themselves from their relationship with God by sinning against Him. They can renew this relationship by accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior (Genesis 1:27 , Acts 4:12 , Romans 3:23 and 6:23 ). Salvation - We believe that salvation - the forgiveness of sins and eternal life - can belong to all who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. This is a free gift of grace through Christ shed blood given when one is ready to repent of sin, confess their faith, and be baptized (by immersion) into Him (John 3:16 , Ephesians 2:8-9 , Galatians 3:26-28 , Romans 6:1-7 , Colossians 2:6 , Acts 2:38 ). Lords Supper - We believe The Lord's Supper is a very special time in a believer's Life and a vital part of our service. We observe The Lord's Supper (Communion) each Sunday. We do this each Sunday to follow the example of The Early Church in the book of Acts. The emblems are passed to all and each person makes a personal decision whether or not they want to participate. We are led in a devotion by someone and we all partake in unison as one body. Church - The Church is the Body & Bride of Christ, founded on the day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere. Matthew 16:13–18 ; Acts 2:14–47 Having many members but one Head. Each member has gifts in which they can help the body function more efficiently. These members are perfect yet their faith and trust is in the perfect one. we never claim to be the only Christians but Christians only. 1 Peter 5:1-4 , 1 Corinthians 12:12-31 , Matthew 28:18-20 ).

Watch Current Series To the Point of Death Life often brings seasons of pain and suffering, leaving us wondering where God is in the midst of it all. This Easter season, we’ll journey through the story of Jesus, who not only understands our pain but entered into it Himself. From His deep sorrow to His intimate prayers, Jesus reveals how to endure suffering with hope and faith. Ultimately, His resurrection brings the promise of victory over every trial.
