FACILITY USER AGREEMENT
GENERAL:
For the purposes of this agreement, references to 'facility' include any property of the church building, furniture, or equipment.
No individual, group, or organization may use any church facilities in a manner that contradicts the mission, purpose, or beliefs of Vineyard Community Church.
Under no circumstances shall Vineyard Community Church be liable to the renter for any lost revenue or incidental, indirect, special, or consequential damages or costs arising from the renter’s inability to use the facilities.
If a renter decides to cancel the event due to inclement weather, Vineyard Community Church will not refund the rental fees.
