Welcome to svca!
Are you new to faith or simply curious about what it means to follow Jesus? We’d love to connect with you! Whether you're just starting your faith journey or ready to take the next step, we’re here to support you.
Please stop by the welcome table after the service. We’ll have snacks and refreshments and would love to answer any questions you have, share more about the hope we have in Jesus, and help you get connected with our church community.

Operation Christmas Child 2025
Monday 11/17 - Monday 11/24 | Church | Afternoons
This year, SVCA will be the central drop off location for the North Bay. This means we will need even more volunteer support than in previous years. We are hoping to get at minimum 30 volunteers throughout the 8 days.
We have set the daily time later than in previous years with the hope this will allow more SVCA members to be available, including youth students.
To sign up, please use this link.
