We believe God has uniquely gifted and called each of us to play a part in advancing His kingdom in our local community. We mobilize the people and resources of TVC to engage our local community by equipping them to share their faith, exposing them to needs in the area through service opportunities, and connecting them to strategic partnerships who are working to advance the gospel in our area.

How to get involved with Local Missions

We desire to generously resource millions of people across the globe as we share the gifts that God has entrusted to us. You can join in this vision locally by donating your time and skills to organizations through TVC, or in our community. Commitment length will vary depending on the event.

We want to emulate our 2030 vision, generously resourcing others within our community. Throughout the year, we will host several opportunities to give not only financially, but through tangible ways. Below are key ways to give to those in need.

Events and Drives

  • CCA Food Drive
  • CISNT Giving Tree
  • CISNT Snack/School Supplies Drive
  • LISD Back Pack Drive
  • LISD Back to School Fair

Community Needs

  • CarePortal

We send disciples into their homes, into neighborhoods, into our city, and into the nation. How we do this through Local Missions is by creating spaces and training to equip others to go out and share the love of Christ with others.

Featured Opportunity

Every summer we partner with local organizations like LISD and CCA to serve the needs of our community. These opportunities can range from ongoing commitments to one-time events, so whatever amount of time you have to volunteer, we have places for you to step in and love your neighbors! Visit vll.ge/summerserve to see a digital PDF of all our opportunities.
