When you are involved with helping in one of our Outreaches, it makes it so easy to get to know others that are serving alongside of you. Each year in Africa, we also build a well for surrounding villages to receive clean water. Each year, VBF sends a team to help bring hope to over 400 children, most of whom have been orphaned. In 2008, we partnered with a school in Zambia, Africa, to see children in extreme poverty be given an opportunity to be educated, fed, and discipled. The outreach we do even extends beyond the borders of our city. Whether it is walking the strip and praying for prostitutes, feeding the homeless, throwing block parties for the surrounding apartment complexes, or taking care of seniors at the Heritage Springs Assisted Living Center, VBF is on the move, actively loving our city. VBF is a very outreach-driven church, meaning that we do well at getting outside the walls of the church building, rolling up our sleeves, and bringing Jesus to people outside the church in practical, loving ways.
#BIBLE STUDY FELLOWSHIP LAS VEGAS HOW TO#
Check out our website and the VBF Weekly for a full list of Learning Groups being offered and how to register to join one of them. They start up again in February and run through May of each year. Learning Groups begin in September and run through November. However, scholarships are available for those who may not be able to afford the fees. Please note that some Learning groups require a small fee to pay for workbooks and other materials. It is a great way to grow your relationship with God, but it is also a great way to get to know other people who attend VBF with you. The Learning Groups emphasize group discussion at the end of each session. The Learning groups use DVD small group study materials and are facilitated by some amazing VBF leaders. These groups meet on Tuesday evenings in various classrooms at VBF for six to eight weeks, and learn from popular Christian authors and speakers (like Beth Moore, Lee Stroble, Gary Chapman, Henry Blackaby, and many others). In this campaign, every attender of VBF is encouraged to participate in four ways at the church.
To help make it easier for people in our church to connect and build meaningful friendships with each other, VBF created the #LiveThe Love campaign. However, in our complex world, it can be awkward to meet new people and develop meaningful relationships with them.
At VBF, we believe that it is impossible to fully become who God desires us to be without other believers coming alongside of us to encourage us, inspire us, and even correct us. Jesus said that people would know we are His disciples by how we love one another (John 13:35). How do people get connected and develop friendships in a church this big? Maybe you’ve already tested the waters and you’re ready to step up your involvement. Instagram: you’ve been coming to VBF for two weeks.
