The One Person You Need in Your Life
Relationships can be difficult, especially if you’re involved with people who do not necessarily bring out the best in you.
Regardless, there is one type of person who can make all the difference in the world. If they possess this one quality, they can help you manage the world in ways you could never on your own. In fact, I believe these people are the most valuable to have in your life. Without them, life can be more drudgery than joy.

2020 Day Camp!
I know that Day Camp is a highlight for many kids in the London area. Unfortunately, Village Green Community Church will not be hosting Day Camp in the summer of 2020. We regret the inconvenience and disappointment this may cause. Plans are starting soon to host Day Camp in 2021. Please check back early 2021 to hear about the great things we have planned for 2021!
From Kids to Adults – Individuality
If I am completely honest with you all, I don’t love every topic that Orange does. Every month has important truths that our kids need to hear, but sometimes they just miss the mark. However, this month hits right on the target. Our theme is Individuality. Identity is something that is becoming more and more of an issue. People are trying to figure out who they are and are attaching to things that don’t define them well. When I was…

Stronger Together
When I started at Village Green I didn’t like that Jr High and Sr High were meeting on the same night.

From Kids to Adults – Service
Last November I decided to wake up early to do some black Friday shopping. There were some good deals on and I wanted to see what the big deal was. I woke up early that morning and headed off to Walmart. With some excitement, the parking lot was not full nor was there a line. I was a little concerned as the store opened 5 minutes before I had arrived. I walked in and it was jam-packed in some sections…
