3 Easy Steps

We hope to make the Raleigh Vineyard your church home! 

Step 1:

We want to make it easy to connect to our church!  Your first step is simple: once a month we have a short after Sunday service gathering for new people.  We call it our Vineyard Welcome.  You can bring your kids too.  You will get a chance to meet some of our pastors and leaders, ask any question you want, and learn about our community. 

Step 2:

After you have been around a while, we want you to come to our Vineyard Exploration.  This is a 3-hour class that is offered every three months or so and gives newcomers a chance to learn more about our values, our vision, and how our church works. During this time, we invite people to consider being a part of our community as we seek to know and serve God better.

Step 3:

The next step is really up to you. We call it Vineyard Involvement.  Being a member here is not nearly as important as being involved.  First, join a small group; these are people like you who are learning more about God and how to develop a personal relationship with God. Maybe you really don’t know much about God or Jesus or the church.  Then take the Alpha Course where Christian basics are discussed in a non-threatening way. A SHAPE class will help you learn how God has gifted you and called you to serve. One of our pastors or small group leaders can help you see what classes or groups might help you the most.
