Hello TVBF Family, During the planning stages of my fathers funeral, & while trying to handle constant changes due to COVID-19, I want you all to know I couldn't have made it without your support. Papa Joe was truly BLESSED to have such an amazing church family to love on him for 48 years! Special thanks to Reverend Smith, Ramona Rogers, Jo Street, TC Peterson & the Hospitality Committee! There were so many cards, floral pieces, & kind words of encouragement. Whatever you did to try to console our hearts...We thank you all so much! The Martin Family

Good Evening True Vine Family, As I'm sure that you're aware, the Governor has issued an order for California residents to stay at home except for "essential needs." I'm also sure that you agree that worshipping the Lord is an essential need for those who seek to follow Him. Fortunately, we can and should worship the Lord in every location and situation, amen! I have spoken with our Board Chairman and the Board and I are in complete agreement that Sunday School and Worship S...ervice will be canceled for this coming Sunday, given the Governor's order and concerns for the safety and well-being of all. The Board and I will develop plans for Bible Study, Sunday School, and Sunday Worship in the days and weeks to come and will inform the congregation of such in the near future. God's program will continue as it has for centuries in spite of diseases and disasters. Please be mindful of the ongoing need to support the ministry of True Vine Bible Fellowship. I encourage you to continue to be obedient Christians as you have been over the years. Spend time in prayer, reading the Word, and then mail your tithes and offerings to the church at 533 South Avalon, Lompoc, CA 93436. I will certainly continue to support the ministry and pay my tithes and give offerings as Interim Pastor as I have done over the past 30 years as a member of this great church. Please feel free to call me should you have any questions, concerns, or needs. Our God is faithful and He will see us through this difficult time. "Trust and obey, For there's no other way To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey." Be blessed, Rev. Charles Smith TVBF Interim Pastor
