About Victor Valley Christian Church

The church was founded in 1969. In early 2022, Pastor Dan joined VVCC as Senior Pastor. Since his arrival, he has shifted the priority of the church to become a blessing to the community. The church focuses on unity and outreach and that has resulted in a steady stream of new families that have little to no church background. In response to that, the church has developed a ministry opportunity each night of the week to serve people where they are at. On Mondays, Pastor Dan leads a discipleship discussion for the leaders in the church. On Tuesdays, Pastor Dan and Pastor Ashley team-teach a bible study that focuses on answering questions about the bible.  On Wednesdays, Pastor Dan and Pastor Ashley lead an Alpha course three times per year. In January of 2026, we launched a Thursday night service that matches our services on Sunday mornings at 9 am and 11 am. During the year, our church will fast together for Lent, host a community-wide trunk or treat event, and kick off a busy Christmas season with a community tree lighting on our campus. Currently, VVCC is committed to serving the community, preaching the gospel, and developing Christians to do the same.
