Family Day
Vanguard Family Project is focused on building familial bonds. All Vanguard families are committed to gathering together one Saturday of each month to learn, encourage, inspire and engage with one another. It is a full day of meaningful activities and culminates with FOOD, FELLOWSHIP, & FIRE. This is a special time for our community to strengthen bonds.
"Love My Neighbor" Day
VFP members gather at one of their homes to serve and encourage them by helping them with a home project. These are some examples of projects: building a chicken coop or a raised bed, cleaning out a barn, and harvesting. We gather to SERVE, SUPPORT, & SHARE.
