“Hebrews 1 and Psalms1, where Christ shows us insightful love and restoration without pressure. Both geared to eradicate the human nature of blameplacing and fault-finding so prevalent in our nature—giving loving kindness and tender mercies. My desire is that we experience love and restoration as we exhault our lives as God indwelled through Christ—atonement indeed.”

Pat Lawrence 

Years at VVBC: 40+

Ministries: Impact Ministry, Christian Education Fund, Treasurer, Prison Fellowship

“Over the last 20 yrs. God has worked many things into me. I’ve pursued mission work, left my job to work in full time ministry, started my own business so I could do “tent making” in China and have ministered in prison. I have tried to have less of me and more of Him during this time. God has proved faithful in continuing to work his will into my life. There are many areas that have been quite uncomfortable where God has worked. There are many ways he has more than fulfilled my desires. The best thing is that God is still working and I am responding the best I can.”.

Maurice Robinson

Grandchildren: 6 so far

Years at VVBC: 17

Ministries: Life Ministry, Leads a Sunday Bible study

"The opportunity of service that has been given to me with the Adult Bible Study has been a blessing from God. My needs continue to be met as I study and prepare each week. I’m not sure that anyone else is benefitting, but I pray that they are, as I pray for God’s direction in preparation each week. My goal in life was always one of service, but I never really understood the concept of “service above self” until I came to know and appreciate the love of Christ as he died instead of me when I don’t deserve His love.”

My desire is to serve Him each day and to show others how to better serve Him. My hope is that, through my experiences, that I would be able to help others learn to trust and rely on Christ as I have. I want to be available to lift up those who have fallen or guide those who are struggling with the issues this world brings."
