Here at VVC we hold to this philosophy of evangelism:
We labor to reach every available person, by every available means, at every available time with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We will do what we can to “Go into all the world,” by both starting in our own little world, and reaching beyond unto the uttermost parts of the earth.” We will pay attention to the needs of our community and seek the Lord on the best ways to address the issues we find. We will live out and declare the gospel of Jesus Christ whever we are and wherever we go.

We Christians are debtors to all men at all times in all places, but we are so smug to the lostness of men. We've been "living in Laodicea ", lax, loose, lustful, and lazy.
