The Vineyard Food Pantry is open at the same time as the medical clinic. Guests receive pre-packaged
bags of groceries furnishing 2-3 meals per bag; family size determines number of bags given. During
Food Pantry hours, a meal of soup, bread and dessert is also served. If you have questions or would like to contribute or volunteer at the food pantry, email VCDCfoodpantry@insight.rr.com.

Vineyard Family Gatherings
As our desire is to be a church family, we want to provide many opportunities for the "family" to gather.
The list of Vineyard Family Gatherings below provides a glimpse of the events that are open to our entire
church family; men and women, married couples and singles, children and adults, young and old. Keep your
eye on the weekly bulletin distributed on Sundays or review the calendar link for the specific dates of each
gathering.
Memorial Day on the Square - Come show your support for the community with the annual Flea
Market on the Square. Shop the various vendors as they peddle their wares, enjoy food and drink from
local vendors and support the church as we continue to tell the community about Jesus, our vision and
values and answer questions.
The festivities repeat on July 4th and Labor Day as well!
July 4th Parade - This longstanding Sunbury tradition is a great midsummer gathering event.
Over the past few years, hundreds of Vineyard men, women and children have walked the parade route passing
out candy, balloons and cold water (which is a big splash!).
Denny Young Day - During the first summer meeting at the Middle School, Danny Meyer received a call
early one morning from the custodian. The school had been vandalized and the church wouldn't be able to meet
that Sunday in the gym.
Well, it was too late to let the congregation know, so "Plan B". The church set up outside and held an
impromptu service that morning. Following the Service, many from the church rolled up their sleeves and
came alongside the custodial staff of the Middle School to clean the building. What would have taken days
or weeks with just the staff, took only hours. A local reporter interviewed Danny Meyer, but in the article
continually quoted "Pastor Denny Young" (who we've yet to identify). Denny Young Day is a reminder that we are called to anonymous service, looking not for rewards and accolades,
but practical ways to love our neighbors. This annual event consists of a variety of Saturday service projects in the Sunbury community.
