EXPLORE MEMBERSHIP DINNER 
JULY 16 AT 5:00 PM

What are some of the benefits of becoming an official church member?   
1. Relationship and Community:  Church members pledge mutual support to one another, so the relationships you make are tied together in a deeper, more meaningful way.

2. Opportunity to Make a Difference:  One of the biggest benefits of church membership is the opportunity to invest your life, time, and resources in a collective purpose that will outlast your lifetime.
 
3. Accountability:  Each member's commitment to spiritual growth and training encourages others to make better decisions and holds all members accountable to biblical principles.
 
4. Leadership Development:  By church membership, you demonstrate your commitment to maturing in Christ, which can serve as a starting point for increased leadership and responsibility within the church body.
 
How can you learn more about becoming a member of VRBC?
If you or someone you know would like to learn more about membership at VRBC, the Explore Membership Dinner is the best way to find out what VRBC is all about! After sharing a good meal and getting to know each other, church leaders will talk about what it means to be a VRBC member. Dinner is free, and childcare is available, if reserved in advance. 

To RSVP, please mark the "Explore Membership" box on the back of your Connection Card during Sunday worship, or email John Hewlett at  [email protected] .
