Summer Movie Matinee — Bonhoeffer
2026-06-08 10:00 - 12:00 (America/Phoenix) | AZ
Summer Movie Matinee — BonhoefferMonday, June 8 @ 10amJoin us for a special church movie matinee featuring Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. — an inspiring and powerful true story about faith, courage, and standing up for what is right. The film follows Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German pastor and theologian who watched his country fall deeper into darkness during World War II. As the Nazi regime gained power and innocent lives were being destroyed, Bonhoeffer struggled with the difficult question of how a Christian should respond to evil and injustice.What begins as a story of a peaceful pastor becomes a moving journey of faith, sacrifice, and moral courage as Bonhoeffer risks everything to help others and stand against tyranny. The movie challenges viewers to think about what it means to live out one’s faith in difficult times and reminds us that one person’s courage can make a difference.Come enjoy this meaningful film along with free popcorn, fellowship, and a welcoming atmosphere. Admission is free, so bring a friend, neighbor, or family member and join us for this special movie matinee event!

Stephen Ministry
2026-06-04 11:00 - 12:00 | AZ
Stephen Ministry equips lay people to provide confidential one-to-one Christian care to individuals in our congregation and community who are experiencing a difficult time in life, such as grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, or relocation.

Stephen Ministers are trained by their congregation’s Stephen Leaders using resources from Stephen Ministries St. Louis. The training they receive in the congregation equips them to provide high-quality care to people who are hurting.

Care receivers are individuals in the congregation or community who are going through a crisis or life difficulty. Potential care receivers first meet with a pastor or Stephen Leader, who assesses their needs for care and matches them with a Stephen Minister.

After being matched with a person experiencing a life crisis, the Stephen Minister meets with that person on a weekly basis for about an hour to listen, care, encourage, and provide emotional and spiritual support. The caring relationship lasts as long as the need for care exists.

“Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2, NRSV)

Noisy Offering
2026-05-31 00:00 - 23:59 | AZ
Noisy Offering — May 30 & 31All proceeds to benefit the LSS-SW Food Pantry —so let’s give generously and make some noise!

WHAT IS A NOISY OFFERING?A noisy offering is a church fundraising tradition where congregation members donate loose change—and sometimes bills—by dropping them into metal buckets, creating a loud, joyful, and, at times, clattering sound! At Victory, it is typically held when there is a 5th Sunday in the month, with funds often going toward specific missions or community needs.
