Our Mission
We seek to become an authentic biblical community effectively reaching out to our churchless neighbors with empathy, grace and truth so they can experience a whole new life with Jesus and like Jesus, more every day.
Our Vision
Reach the Next Generations
Serve the Most Vulnerable
Multiply Churches
Our Movement
In 2030, VC members will be planted in four Western locations strategically equipping suburbanites to collaborate with the Holy Spirit in wisdom, power & revelation.
Together, they will graciously lead their churchless neighbors to be with Jesus & like Jesus, more every day. Together, they will empower joyous small groups to care well for each other and meet the needs of the most vulnerable.
As a result, they will alter neighborhoods locally & around the world, creating applause for our Father in heaven. All four VC communities will be commissioned to multiply to four more VC communities over their next ten years.
Lastly, no perfect people will be allowed to join these communities.
Our History
Vancouver Church (also known as First Church of God) began as a Sunday school in 1926, meeting in a private home. Over the next three decades, the church expanded its membership, new worship facilities were constructed, and attendance reached about 250 people. Over time, additional pastors were called, a radio ministry was established, a youth program was organized, and Peter Pan Daycare started.
