VRBC THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
30 YEARS. 30 STORIES. 30 SERVES.
READ TODAY'S STORY AT
VRBC.NET/30FOR30
VRBC will celebrate a huge milestone this April--the thirtieth anniversary of its founding! Throughout the month, we will commemorate THIRTY years of God's faithfulness and thousands of lives changed by telling THIRTY stories (one each day) of life transformation and by participating in more than THIRTY acts of service in Valley Ranch, Coppell, and surrounding communities.
The anniversary festivities will culminate with a big, churchwide celebration during and after the worship service on April 30. Please join us as we thankfully look back on how God has worked through VRBC and expectantly look forward to how He will continue to work in our church, our community, and around the world!

TABLE TO THE CROSS SERVICE
APRIL 13 | 7:00 PM
On the evening of Maundy Thursday, 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
is a meaningful time to focus on the sacrifice Jesus made on our behalf and a wonderful way to prepare our hearts for the joy of Easter morning.
Children's Ministry will be available for preschool children (birth through five years old).
