On Sunday, October 26, 2025, VLC gathered in person and also broadcast online via YouTube. Pastor Gio Serrato shared an encouragement to look to Christ for help with building endurance by laying aside our sin and picking up our cross, and finding the strength to persevere in Christ until the end.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:1-2 (ESV)
