WELCOME
Thanks for taking the time to visit our site here at The Village Church! Although in many ways we're celebrating 25 years as a church family in the city, for the city, with the love of Jesus, we're also a newly forming church community, as New Harvest Community Church and The Village Church of Irvine have come together as one. Jesus is moving in new and fresh ways in our midst, and we invite you to come be a part of what He is doing for His good name in our church community, the local community and the world.
Our hope as you visit us, even here, is that you'll find a genuine community committed to Communion with Jesus - connecting with Him in new and real ways; Community - connecting with one another in new and real ways; and Compassion - extending the mercy and love of Jesus in new and real ways across the street and across the world.
Would you come and join us? We'd look forward to meeting you.
