Welcome to the Vineyard Church of Surprise and to our website! In just a few years we have begun to realize our vision of being a worshipping community, making disciples, and staying on mission to expand the Kingdom of God throughout our city and around the world. The story of the Vineyard Church of Surprise is about ordinary people who worship an extraordinary God who has revealed Himself in Jesus Christ. We are grateful to be a part of what God is doing through His Church around the world.
What Can I Expect in the Vineyard Church of Surprise?

-
You can expect to find a community of believers who are determined to love God, love each other, and live a life of service. This means that as we learn to speak the truth in love, reconciliation and respect draw us toward our differences and uniqueness as people. We see each person's gifts and callings as equally valuable and important to our mission, regardless of age, ethnicity, or cultural background.
-
You can expect to be challenged by the truth of the Bible as it is taught, practiced, and woven into every area of life.
-
You can expect to be called into ministry; to be among people who know that Jesus came not to be served, but to serve, and our calling is no different.
-
You can expect to be among disciples of Jesus who are also called to be disciple-makers for the rest of our lives.
