Christmas Service Schedule 2011
The 2011 Christmas Service Schedule will include a 7pm Christmas Eve Service, but not a Sunday morning service on Christmas day. Rather than attempting to spread the focus over multiple services during this joyful season, VCC has decided to focus on a single meaningful Christmas Eve service that will centered on our savior and Lord - Jesus Christ. Please plan to attend this service and make it a center point of community worship for the VCC family. Here is the planned schedule over Christmas 2011:
Sunday December 18, 2011 10:00am Service - Children's Pageant - 'Twas the Night Before
Saturday December 24, 2011 7:00pm Service - A Special Christmas Eve Service
Sunday January 1, 2011 10:00am Service - Communion Service, wrapping up the He Came! Series
Please plan to join us for any or all of these special services.

Membership Approves Land Purchase
The VCC members voted to approve the purchase of 28-acres of land a short distance north of downtown Victor on Country Rd 9 and Aldridge Road (driving North on Church Street). If the purchase is successful, the goal would be to eventually build a new home for VCC on the land. It is a beautiful piece of property with a pond, a hill and lots of trees - including a mature stand of pine trees easily identifiable in the picture as the dark circle near The NYS Thruway (I-90).
To get a better feel for the property, please view the pictures from the VCC Land Walk on Saturday November 12.
Now that the membership has approved the purchase, the next step is to present a request to the town to subdivide the existing 33 acre parcel into two pieces:
-
The 28 acres of land VCC hopes to purchase and build the future home of Victor Community Church.
-
A 5 acre cutout with a beautiful farm house built in 1840 that will continue to be occupied by the existing owners
VCC is on the agenda for the Town of Victor Planning Committee meeting on December 13, 2011 to seek approval to subdivide this property. All the paperwork has been submitted to the town (thank you Ken and Machelle), so all that remains to properly prepare for this meeting is prayer.
Pending approval, the next step will be to finalize financing in preparation for a January 2012 closing on the land. Please continue to pray for this process and the Church as we go through this exciting time.
If we are successful in completing this purchase, the obvious question will be - how long until we start building? We can't answer this question at this time - instead we will wait upon the Lord, and be thankful for all that He continues to provide!

Steve Lamarco Announced as New Senior Pastor
The Deacon Board is pleased to announce that after an extensive prayer led search process, Steve Lamarco has been named the new Senior Pastor of Victor Community Church.
Steve will assume responsibility for the spiritual leadership of VCC in early October as he transitions from his current position of Associate Pastor at Whitehaven Road Baptist Church in Grand Island, NY.
Steve is a passionate and gifted communicator of Biblical truth who brings over 25 years of Pastoral Ministry to VCC. Prior to his 14+ years serving at Whitehaven Road Baptist Church, he served as Youth Pastor not far from Victor at Canandaigua Baptist Church. Steve comes from another North American Baptist Church from within the same region as VCC, and is well known, and highly regarded within the region.
The Pastor Search process has been completely covered in Prayer and there is a confidence that the Lord has uniquely prepared and selected Steve for this role at this time in His Church.
Please join us in welcoming Steve to VCC!
