What We Do

Living our faith is important, and there are many ways that people can offer service. In addition to volunteering on one of our church committees, you can get involved in groups dedicated to music/dance/poetry, the food ministry, spiritual discussion, social advocacy and informal get-togethers.

First Sundays of every month - 10:30am & 10:00am (48 St Marks Place)

On the 2nd Sunday of the month, members offer their witness to faith and a special praise service.

On the 3rd Sunday of the month, we pray for healing by anointing with oil in a moving healing service.

We offer services during Holy Week: Ash Wednesday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

Plans are underway for Sunday School for children (over 5 years of age) and Child Care, to be provided every week on Sunday morning.

Here at Church of the Village, we are concerned with making sure our youth are a big part of our church community. There are lots of ways for youth to get involved: volunteer opportunities, chances to be involved in worship services, youth-only events and activities and a whole lot more. If you want to learn more any of these things or just meet with somebody about what's going on in your life, contact Nathan Bledsoe - Email: youth@churchofthevillage.org

We now have a Facebook Page - Check it Out!

Young adult events are offered throughout the year. To find out more, please contact Pastor Vicki Flippin - Email: pastorvicki@churchofthevillage.org
