Victory QC Community Outreach Ministry

VCO's Family Support Volunteer

VCO’s Family Support Volunteer

“Transforming Lives. Discipling Communities.”

The Victory QC Community Outreach (VCO) is one of the first ministries among Victory churches that conduct outreach services and medical missions.

“One of its aims is to expand the kingdom of God in needy communities by engaging, establishing, equipping, empowering, and organizing individuals, families and groups. It endeavors to facilitate changes for community transformation where the multi-dimensional needs of people are addressed through participatory faith and actions.”

It offers two volunteering positions, the Outreach Event Volunteer and Family Support Volunteer.

For the Outreach Event Volunteer, the following are the tasks and duties:

– fills in staffing requirement for outreach events (e. g. ushers, registration assistants, etc.)

– engages the people in the community

– attends meetings with Coordinator for Special Events as scheduled

– attends special meetings and activities as needed (e.g. manning Community Outreach booth during recruitment Sundays, etc.)

– reports directly to the Coordinator for Special Events.

For the Family Support Volunteers, they should be church members of good character and have the heart to minister to the Real Life Foundation scholars’ families. The following are the tasks and duties:

– visits the family at least once a month

– implements the discipleship process of 4Es

– prepares and submits monthly reports to the Coordinator for Families

– attends meetings with Coordinator for Families as scheduled

– attends special meetings and activities as needed (e.g. manning Victory QC Community Outreach booth during recruitment Sundays, etc.)

– reports directly to the Coordinator for Families.

I already volunteered in these two positions. We are currently looking for more volunteers. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact us at victoryqc.org and www.igivetolife.com.

It is always an honor to be of service to God by helping our fellow sisters and brothers in Christ. 🙂

That Moment of Pure Bliss

Today, I woke up doing my same old routine – feed the kittens, fix my bed, read the Bible and pray.

What was unusual with this day though was this – while praying, I cried. It can’t be my PMS as I just had my girl thing a week ago. Nor is it because I was tired yesterday. Or because I was sad, lonely, angry or any of those “feeling down” moments and “emo” days.

I think it was that pure bliss of having my quiet time alone with God. That time when I talk to Him as if He is in front of me, thank Him for making things possible, for the beauty of life despite struggles, failures and pain. That moment of deeper understanding why things happen, why you meet certain people and feel certain emotions with them, why you have to make certain decisions and do certain things.

But why cry over them? I had no idea at first. I just remembered thinking I should go over my Preparing for Victory and One to One booklets once again to reread what my VG leader, Sheryl and I have discussed to uplift my spirits. It was only then that the thought started to sink in – I was caught up in a whirlwind of events for the past weeks and months, to make me appreciate a lot of things in preparation for an event I almost forgot – March 2 and 3 are my very special dates with my Creator.

But then again, why cry on a Monday? It was God’s way of reminding me that it is supposed to be my week of quiet time with Him in preparation for this coming weekend. I was meant to cry today, according to His plans. 😀

Yes, God prepared me well, indeed. 😉

“I Volunteer!”

Yep, I am joining in. 🙂

I checked one of the little boxes right up there. Most probably you’re going to ask, why Communications Ministry? I, myself, don’t even have the slightest idea why I chose that when it wasn’t even part of the 3 ministries that I am choosing from – Kids Ministry, Music Ministry and Admin Support.

All I could remember was my hand and my pen gravitating toward the box beside Communications Ministry when Pastor Dan started counting down during the worship service the Sunday before last Sunday saying, “Okay, you have 10 more seconds left to decide where you want to volunteer.” I just stared at the check mark after checking the box contemplating why.

But I did not dare change it. Again, I don’t know why. Until I submitted the form. I can neither ask God why. For I know not what the plans He has for me. But if this is my calling, then, I would definitely accept it. Wholeheartedly. 🙂

As with any obligation, responsibility and form of volunteerism, commitment is the key in providing a successful and fulfilling service. I only have one prayer at this point – may God guide me so I would be able to stay committed and focused with this new endeavor and be able to serve His purpose.

All for You, Father God. All for You. 🙂
