This yearlong course is designed for students to practice leadership skills and a servant mentality as they connect VCHS with opportunities to assess and minister to the needs of the community surrounding our campus.  Much of our work is through partnership with local schools.  Components of study included are: the study of child development and lesson planning; Biblical prayer and evangelism; researching the effects of prayer on historical Christian revivals and missions; the study and practice of leadership skills; and the application of prayer evangelism. This last component will include the practical application of the class as they participate in and plan activities, tutor and host a kids club on the local elementary school campuses. 

Additional Expectations:  There is a fee for a uniform, which includes a sweatshirt and t-shirt. You will receive non-church community service hours for attendance and participation in this course.  Please note VCHS requires a minimum of 10 hours of community service to be completed with a Christian church each year.  

Special Note:  This course is a Bible department service learning course.  Students will need to take one Philosophy of Religion/World Religions course and one service course before graduation.  Students are placed in different service courses after completing a feedback form that helps determine the best fit for their unique service experience.  Please refer to the Bible department map tab for more information.
