THIS IS CORNERSTONE WEEKEND!

SATURDAY & SUNDAY | NOVEMBER 20-21

CORNERSTONE SERVE DAY

After looking forward to it for several months, Cornerstone Weekend is here! To kick off the weekend, we are devoting this Saturday, November 20, to serving our sister church in South Dallas and the Cornerstone community. There will be some terrific projects in South Dallas, as well as lots of serve opportunities for families with young children right here at VRBC. For more details and to get signed up, click here. Questions? Contact Arthur Mendes at amendes@vrbc.net.

CORNERSTONE SUNDAY

On Sunday, November 21, we'll celebrate Cornerstone Sunday! Pastor Chris Simmons, the senior pastor at Cornerstone Baptist Church, will be with us Sunday morning to share the message, and Will Hood and the Cornerstone band will be leading worship together with our VRBC team. Because of the pandemic, Cornerstone Sunday may look a little different from years past. Although we will miss having the Cornerstone congregation come, and the opportunity to share a lunch together, we look forward to a great celebration of worship! Make sure and join us in person or online at 9:30 am, or on demand anytime that week! 

COMMUNION

THIS SUNDAY | NOVEMBER 21 | 9:30 AM

During our worship service this Sunday, November 21, we will be celebrating Communion. Gluten-free wafers will be available. To participate at home, you'll need to have just a couple of things on hand: bread or crackers and grape juice or water.
