OUR MISSION:
Drawn to Jesus
Empowered by The Spirit
Reaching People Together
Whether you’ve been following Jesus for years or are just beginning to ask questions about faith, there is a place for you here!
Vineyard Church is a multi-generational family dedicated to pursuing an intimate, daily walk with God and welcoming the transformative power of the Holy Spirit into every part of our lives.
We believe church happens both on Sunday mornings at 10am and throughout the week in our relational small groups, where we “do life” together and carry one another’s burdens.
From our commitment to “Jesus-style neighboring” in Marysville to our passion for developing leaders and partnering globally, our heart is to see every person–regardless of age or background–empowered to see their unique gifts for God’s Kingdom.
So come as you are, and let’s reach our community together!
The Kingdom of God Defined:
The kingdom of God is the rule and reign of Jesus Christ. Jesus came to restore and renew what sin destroyed. By faith through grace we embrace the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, enabling us to live as kingdom people.
Though not fully realized until Jesus returns, the kingdom is present now, anywhere, anytime we choose to listen, to engage, to obey Jesus. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we live, love, and serve with Jesus in every area of our lives. Therefore we pray, “your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
We see Jesus’ teaching on the kingdom of God as the overarching and integrating theme of the Scriptures. The Vineyard movement expresses the historical, biblical, orthodox Christian beliefs with the Bible as our final authority in all matters of faith and practice.
Our Values:
The Pursuit of God
We value passionately pursuing an intimate walk with God by inviting Jesus into every aspect of home, work, and daily life.
The Welcome of the Spirit
We value the presence of the Holy Spirit and the pursuit of His gifts. We believe all New Testament gifts are still valuable, even desperately needed, for the church today.
Jesus-Style Neighboring
We value loving and serving others much like our Lord Jesus, who showed compassion and brought hope to people with messy, sinful, broken lives.
Relational Small Groups
We value becoming a caring, Christ-centered family by gathering in small groups throughout the week. We will carry each other’s burdens and “do life” together.
Multi-Generational Church
We value family ministry, where every generation gets to play and be actively involved in the Lord’s work. By God’s grace, even children and youth will be active participants in church life and ministry.
Marriage and the Family
We value God’s plan for human sexuality as expressed in a monogamous, lifelong relationship between one man and one woman within the covenant union of marriage.
Leadership Development for Men & Women
We value team-oriented leadership based on gifting and calling, as opposed to gender, race, or class.
Local Kingdom Partnerships
We value partnering with local pastors, churches, and organizations to help advance God’s kingdom in our region.
Globally Minded Community
We value partnering with other like-minded churches to become a globally minded people, caring and praying for other nations as the Spirit of God leads.
