Special Response Team

The Valley Creek Mission Team has formed a Special Response Team to help meet the needs of community members who may need groceries or other necessities during this time. We want to show the love of Jesus, share the good news of Jesus, and love our neighbors well during this time. Special Response Team members are being trained on guidelines and procedures that will protect them and those we are serving. Here’s how you can help at this time:

If you or someone you know is unable to get out and need help getting necessities like groceries, call the church office at (270) 737-9282 during regular office hours. After office hours, call Mike Hulsey at (270) 737-6535. When you call, we will need the name, address, phone number, and need of those who need assistance.

Keep checking in with those who are most at risk due to age or other risk factors. Some may have physical needs we can meet, but many will be encouraged to hear from a familiar voice.

Pray for the members of the Special Response Team and those who will be served.

As needs come in, each need will be matched with one of our team members who will go to the door of the home, pick up a list of needs and money to pay for those needs, and then return with those supplies. Again, those team members are being trained on ways to protect themselves and those we are serving. If you would like to be a part of this team as needs increase, please email andrew@vcbc.org
Church update (3/13/20)

Dear Valley Creek Family,

I was preparing late this afternoon to send a letter confirming that we would be having services this weekend and outline the many precautions we were taking to protect our members and guests. However, after further dialogue with our local Healthcare Providers, after considering the repeated request of our Governor, knowing that our President has now declared a state of Emergency, we feel that it is in the best interest of our community and church family to cancel our public worship gathering and move everything to online. You can be assured that this decision was not made lightly and pray that all will understand. In light of this decision, we are announcing that we will be live streaming this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. You can find the link to this service on our home page at vcbc.org. As part of our service, Sharon Wright, one of our members and a local healthcare provider, will be sharing some valuable facts about the virus and things to do for prevention. I hope you will be able to join us as we worship online.

Also, at this time we will be cancelling all other activities until further notice. We will be sending out more information this week as everything remains fluid. Since this decision has been made we want a couple things very clear:

This decision is not based in panic and fear but in a careful review of the latest information available. Throughout the Bible, God assures us that He is in control and also calls us to walk in wisdom. Therefore, we want to work with public health officials and our community leaders to slow the spread of COVID-19. 

Above all, this decision is about love for our neighbors. COVID-19 is more dangerous to some than others, but love calls each of us to put others before ourselves. In this case, avoiding large public gatherings is an important component in slowing the spread and lessening the impact of COVID-19.

We ask that you continue to pray for our leaders as they make very big decisions, pray for those who have already been affected by the virus, pray for those who are taking care of those affected, and pray for those in our community who need hope. For believers, we don’t have to have fear because we know our hope and trust is in Jesus Christ. Use this time to minister to neighbors and friends who need to know the hope you have. In the days ahead we will be providing you with opportunities or ideas on how to minister during this time.

I look forward to worshipping with you on Sunday.

God bless,

Scott Kerr, Pastor
