Contemporary Worship
2025-02-23 11:00 - 12:00
Launching New

CONTEMPORARY WORSHIP SERVICE @ 11:00AMBeginning April 7th, Victory Lutheran will introduce a Contemporary Worship Service at 11:00am on Sunday mornings. Following Easter, the 11:00am service will shift from traditional to contemporary music, led by a praise team under the guidance of Jackie Jewel.

This new service has been a long-requested and carefully planned endeavor. While contemporary worship has been a part of Victory for over twenty years, it hasn’t been present at the Mesa campus for quite some time.

It’s important to note that traditional worship remains the cornerstone of Victory’s worship experience. This is our primary focus. We’re not aiming to “blend” traditional and contemporary styles. Our Saturday service at 4:00pm and Sunday services at 8:00am and 9:30am will continue to uphold traditional styles with excellence. The 11:00am Sunday service will adopt a contemporary style, also delivered with excellence.

Grandparenting Summit 2025
2025-02-21 09:00 - 16:30
If there’s ever a time to call “all hands on deck” in the discipleship of the next generations, it’s now!

With honest reflection, we might agree that “all hands” are not on deck. Church ministries do a lot to impact young people, yes. Parents are primary influences, of course. Yet a vast army of spiritual influencers remain largely unengaged: Grandparents.

Victory Lutheran Church is a satellite host site for the 2025 Legacy Coalition Grandparenting Summit. We welcome you to join us and invite your friends to attend!

This year’s conference theme is For This Purpose. What purpose, you ask? That faith would be perpetuated in our families. Nationally known speakers and gifted content experts will encourage grandparents to embrace that purpose for the rest of their lives. You may remember we studied this subject in the “Grandparenting Matters” class. This summit will refill our tanks and help lead us forward with more rewarding content and ideas for developing your relationship with your grandchildren.

The summit day will feature seven gifted speakers leading us forward in understanding Grandparenting Matters! The day begins at 9:00am and ends at 4:30pm, with breaks between speakers and lunch provided by the church with a free-will offering. Please register as soon as possible, as there is a discount before January 31st. Click below to REGISTER!

Stephen Ministry
2025-02-20 11:00 - 12:00 | Victory Lutheran Church, 5946 E. University Dr., Mesa, AZ, 85205, United States
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)
