Welcome to VCC Youth!
We exist to help the youth of Vineyard Community Church find a deeper relationship with Jesus, and with each other. We long to see a generation of students become passionate about God, and their role in His plan to see the world illuminated by the love of Christ. Whether a student is deeply familiar with Jesus, or knows very little about Him, they are invited to join in with our community of young followers in seeing God’s love impact our communities, schools, and families!
Where to go?
If you are in 5th - 12th grade, join us on Sunday mornings in the VCC Youth Room (located at the far North end of the building) at 10:45am for worship, teaching, and fun! We also have small groups that meet during the week for Middle School Girls, High School Girls, and Youth Guys!

FAQ
What does a Sunday morning consist of?
After students check in for service, we meet in the youth room at the north end of the building at 10:45am. From there we begin service with some games, worship, and prayer. Following worship there is a short teaching. Then students break up into small groups letd by our adult volunteer leaders to reflect on the message and share about their week. We than finish in the gym for some hang out time with friends!
How are Youth leaders chosen and vetted?
Our youth leaders consist of parents or other adults in the VCC community who are passionate about seeing the younger generation know Jesus and make Him known! They are carefully vetted through a third party background check service and interviewed to ensure that they are a good fit to lead our students.
Is there a place for my special needs child in Youth?
We are consistently auditing our youth ministry to ensure that it is welcoming to any and all students between 5th and 12th grade, regardless of any special needs or accommodations they may have.
