Weekend Services

Come As You Are Atmosphere
Come as you are to the Vineyard! People are encouraged to wear whatever they'd like, and they do! From blue jeans to corporate casual, whatever you feel most comfortable wearing. Our celebrations reflect this informal atmosphere using music, messages and occasional videos to communicate important insights.

Modern Worship Music
If you're ready for music you can relate to, come and check out the Vineyard. The musicians at the Vineyard play and sing modern rock at each service. Sometimes it's loud and happy, other times mellow and reflective. No matter what, it is always performed with the purpose of bringing you closer to the heart of God.

Practical Messages
Vineyard celebrations address the issues and problems people face today. They're created to be relevant and filled with practical advice that you can begin to use right away. Vineyard's goal is to help you grow in faith and lead a happy, fulfilling and successful life. That's why you'll find series like "Building Strong Families", "Developing a Focused Life", "Overcoming Bad Habits"...all based on time-tested biblical principles.

Quality Children's Programs
The Vineyard offers quality programs for children. Celebrations include special care for the little ones and fun classes for 3 years old to 6th grade. Awana is every Wednesday night through the school year, and is for ages 3 years through 5th grade. The nursery is well equipped with toys and supplies and classes use professionally prepared materials. Teachers and assistants give the highest quality care. Parents tell us they've returned to the Vineyard because their children have such an enjoyable time--and learn something as well.

200 Series
Once you come out of 201, we encourage you to do three things:

1. Serve in a ministry (After having learned your S.H.A.P.E. in 201, you should have a pretty good idea what ministry God has shaped you for.)

2. Grow in a Small Group (Spiritual growth is best done in the context of relationship. Click here to find a small group)

3. Learn in our 200-Series (Again, discipleship is best done in the context of relationship, so we highly encourage you to remain in your small group as you take these classes. You can then process with your leader and the other group members what you're learning.)

Baptism Class
We offer baptisms the second full weekend of every month (except June and July) at all 6 weekend services. If you desire to be baptized, you will need to register for one of two baptism classes offered the first weekend of every month. Childcare is provided at no cost. (During the summer, we do baptisms at our church picnic in June.)

Encounter God
This retreat is on a Friday (6:30-9pm) and Saturday (8am-1pm) and we do these 5 times per year. Please only register for this class if you can make both the Friday and Saturday sessions. Encounter God is a weekend retreat that provides an opportunity for intense spiritual growth. The goal is to experience the freedom that God has made available to believers. Freedom from guilt, freedom from sin, freedom from hurts, freedom from 'strongholds' - those areas of our lives that have not yet been brought under the Lordship of Christ. No childcare provided. Cost is $10.

Celebration of Discipline
The great men and women of faith throughout the ages have engaged in a set of practices through which they have grown spiritually, learned to overcome life's obstacles, and have experienced accomplishments of faith and obedience through the grace of God. These practices are often referred to as "The Spiritual Disciplines." In this 7 week class we will study and practice the spiritual disciplines as laid out by Richard Foster in his classic book, Celebration of Discipline. The class will combine video teaching, small group discussion and take home assignments. Thursdays, 6:30-8pm.

Sharing Christ
Join us for this 6-session class as we learn God's plan for evangelism and how we can be most effective sharing Christ with others individually and as a church. The book we use for this course is The Evangelism Guidebook which will give you expert advice on reaching anyone with the gospel--from your next door neighbor to your coworker, from the Muslim to the Agnostic, from the Asian to the Hispanic--just about anyone you'll ever meet. The chapters are written from some of the best known names in evangelism and church leadership today--Luis Palau, Rick Warren, Mike Silva, Josh McDowell, Tom Phillips, and dozens of others who are experts in their fields. You can look up types of people by relationship group, age group, vocation, religion, race, life situation, and gender/sexual orientation. Basically, if you've got a non-Christian in mind, this class will help you specifically learn how to share Christ with that person. Childcare provided for a small fee.
This class is on hold until further notice.

 

Disciple Bible Study
DISCIPLE is a 34-week in-depth survey of the Old and New testament and is highly encouraged for those who are open to a life changing experience that will bring them into a new and fuller commitment as a follower of Jesus. This class is an intensive study that will require preparation, presence, and participation. This class will require 40 minutes of study six days a week.

Financial Peace University
A 13-week video curriculum, taught by financial expert Dave Ramsey, incorporates small-group discussions to encourage accountability and discipleship. Most financial programs are boring, with confusing information and monotonous instructors. Financial Peace is very different! It is highly entertaining for everyone, with a unique combination of humor, informative financial advice, and biblical messages. Pre-registration is required. There is a $25 class fee PLUS participants also need to purchase a Financial Peace membership kit ($100 per married couple or single person.) Class fee and member kits MUST be paid for at least 2 weeks prior to the first class. Childcare is available for a small fee.
