A HOLY RESET
rest. receive. rejoice.
Join your Village Church family on for an all-church Sabbath retreat—from the comfort of your own home. Our focus for this Holy Reset in this winter season will be rest and delight.
You are invited to set aside a day or part of your day of your choosing as your household’s Holy Reset day. We have provided prayers and ideas to guide your Holy Reset; otherwise, your day will be self-directed based upon your needs.
Our Sunday morning worship on Feb. 7, led by Pastor Sally and Pastor Melanie, focused on the sabbath themes of resting, receiving and rejoicing.

It seems to be a longer winter than usual this year. Give yourself the gift of a Holy Reset to rest, rejuvenate and rejoice.
