up your children to come play, make crafts, and learn about Jesus
over five weeks. Devotions will be provided for Moms who want to
use their time that way or you can use the time to run errands,
get coffee or take a nap! The cost to participate is $5 per child
to cover snacks and craft expenses. We would love to bless Moms
in and out of our community, so feel free to invite your friend’s
children. Space is limited so sign up soon!

sharing and praying on Wednesday, May 14 and Tuesday, June 25, at

please come and join us.

The Invitation:
A Family Festival for the West
For the first time ever, the Anaheim Vineyard will be hosting a
conference for the whole family. The event will be all about Jesus,
and his invitation to follow Him and join His cause. There will
also be a program for all kids and teens (the Equip Conference will
happen simultaneously). There will be workshops in the afternoon
to equip you in many areas of the Christian life and ministry. If
you are interested in getting more information or attending, brochures
are available on the Welcome Table in the Courtyard or visit www.AnaheimVineyard.com.
We Want to Hear
from You!
Since a major part of the transition has been accomplished, and
our focus is now the search for our new Senior Pastor, our name
has been changed to Pastoral Search Team (PST for short). Our new
email address for any input is vcfp-pst@yahoogroups.com. In addition,
we are beginning the process of reviewing our senior pastor profile
and our search process, as well as creating a church profile that
will describe our church to any candidates who do not know us. We
encourage you to send in any comments you have regarding the Senior
Pastor search process
