It is said that a church is the only co-operative organization which exists for the benefit of its non-members. Here at Vallejo Drive, we strive toward that end. We want to be known as people who reach out to those around us, who are not indifferent to the physical and spiritual needs of others.

Toward that goal...

Our youth participate in a weekly homeless feeding program in North Hollywood.

In cooperation with the Community Center Thrift Store at Glendale Adventist Medical Center, the Vallejo Drive Church runs an assistance program for the needy. Those who need assistance can go to the church office and receive vouchers for food or clothing items redeemable at the Thrift Store. In case of an emergency, vouchers for one-night's stay at a local motel are also available.

On a monthly basis, a group of members visit patients at the Glendale Adventist Medical Center and provide singing, comfort and spiritual encouragement.

Every Christmas our Church participates in a program called Angel Tree, which is designed for children of inmates who would not otherwise receive any presents nor have a Christmas celebration.

Every summer the Vallejo Drive Church opens its doors to many children of the surrounding communities who come for a weeklong Vacation Bible School program to learn, grow and have fun together.

In the summer of 2001, a group of youth from the Vallejo Drive Family went to Baja, Mexico, to conduct a weeklong children's program to the children of migrant farm workers. The blessings were obviously mutual and other similar trips will certainly follow.

Currently, one of our church members, Todd Trumper, is serving as a volunteer missionary, teaching English in Korea.  A student snapped a picture of Todd and some enthusiastic learners who were celebrating their language accomplishment at the end of a school term in December 2005.
