NEW INVITE OPPORTUNITY: Send an EVITE !
Have you been building a relationship with one person you can invite to attend an Easter worship service with you?  An easy way to invite someone is to send a personalized evite.

SERVE OPPORTUNITIES: Attend one. Serve one.
We are expecting many guests to visit VRBC on Easter Sunday, so there will be lots of opportunities to serve our guests with hilariously generous hospitality. Please consider attending one of the worship services and serving during the other. Visit vrbc.net/serve to find ways you can serve. 
LEADERS GATHERING
MARCH 21 | 6:30 PM

As we move into the spring, we'd like to invite you to our next Leaders Gathering on Wednesday, March 21, from 6:30 to 8:00 pm in the Seminar Room. During our time we will:
  • Share a delicious meal together
  • Celebrate some of the good things that God is doing among us
  • Get a behind-the-scenes look at a developing 2028 vision that the Church Council and staff have been working on over many months
  • Discuss ways that we can be engaged in our mission of inviting/building relational bridges to the 56,000 lost and lonely people in Valley Ranch and Coppell who are not currently connected to Christ or a local church
  • Pray for God's guidance and blessing as each one of us seeks to reach one 
All VRBC attenders are welcome to attend this meeting, even if you don't currently hold an official leadership role. Childcare will be provided, and no RSVP is necessary. We look forward to seeing you there!

TABLE TO THE CROSS SERVICE
MAUNDY THURSDAY, MARCH 29 | 7:00 PM

Maundy Thursday is a meaningful time to focus on the sacrifice Jesus Christ made on our behalf and is a wonderful way to prepare your heart for the joy of Easter morning. On the evening of March 29, we will follow Jesus through the last twenty-four hours of His life . . . from the Last Supper table all the way to the cross. 

This reflective service will be held at 7:00 pm in the Worship Center.  Children's ministry will be provided for preschool children.  We hope you will join us.

AMY WILKINS STAFF ANNIVERSARY

We are very pleased to announce the ten-year staff anniversary of Amy Wilkins, VRBC Pastor of Serve & Invite.  During Amy's ten years of service at VRBC, we have been abundantly blessed by her commitment to lead our church in graciously serving people in our community and around the world and in inviting diverse and disconnected people to passionately follow Jesus together.
 
There will be a time of recognition for Amy during the March 18 worship services, with a reception to follow the last service in the church lobby. Notes of appreciation and gift cards, if desired, may be placed in the basket at the Welcome Center in the church lobby or dropped off with the church receptionist beginning this Sunday, March 11, through March 18.
