2006 was another amazing year for VCW!

Look at some of the things God did with us during our second year:

• We had 161 first-time visitors—even more than during our first year!
• We touched more than 1700 people in the greater Waterville area through our servant evangelism outreaches.
• We continue to have favor with the media with two more stories in the newspaper positively portraying what we’re building at VCW.
• We continue to have around 25 downloads of the recorded sermons each day.
• We’ve made significant improvements in the facility by bringing the wiring up to code, replacing the front door with an energy efficient one, and replacing the metal roof.
• We’ve moved the children’s ministry to the bigger, brighter room and the worship service to the more intimate area with the kitchen. This reflects our values of developing authentic relationships and making sure our kids know they’re not 2nd class citizens in the Kingdom.
• We were able to send three people off to do great things for the Kingdom.
• We’re seeing many of us grow in experience, authority, and maturity.
• And we ended the year with 3 baptisms!

I’m humbled by what God’s doing in our midst. He’s deepened our commitment to the Kingdom, to one another, andto the community around us. Just think, a couple years ago, a Vineyard Church in Waterville was only a prayer on people’s lips. Look at what He’s already accomplishing through us!

Thank you for being part of our second year whether through your presence or through your prayers. I’m excited to say, 2007 is already promising to be an even greater year!

Blessings,



Marc A. Pitman, Pastor
