Welcome to the Valley Oak Community Church (VOCC) website. We are glad you have dropped in for a visit.  Whether this is your first time here or you come by regularly we want you to feel at home just as if you dropped by our facility site. If you don’t find what you are looking for please let us know and we will do our best to help.

We are located all over town. In fact, our church may live in your neighborhood, because the church consists of people just like you. The facility we meet at is located at the corner of W. Henderson Ave. and N. Matthew Street, 1970 W. Henderson Ave., Porterville, CA

We look forward to the opportunity to meet you face-to-face and hope that you will join us in worship soon. How about this Sunday? To find out when we gather click the Calendar or Worship. 

We believe the Bible, both Old and New Testaments, to be written without error, inspired by God, and the only authoritative Word of God for Christian faith and practice.

We believe in one God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and holy, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe that true faith in Jesus Christ is the only means of salvation. That Jesus is the Son of God, coming to earth fully God and fully human, living a sinless life. His substitutionary death, shed blood, and bodily resurrection are necessary and sufficient for the redemption and salvation of all men, both men and women.

We believe God created that man (both men and women) in His own image. The fall of man into sin and disobedience to God has produced divine condemnation. Man cannot earn salvation by his own merit but must, through faith, experience reconciliation in Jesus Christ.

We believe that only those accepting Jesus by repentance of sins and acclamation of the Lordship of Jesus Christ are forgiven and declared righteous by God, thereby receiving eternal life as a free gift of God.

We believe the true Church comprises all persons who have experienced salvation through Jesus Christ.

We believe believers in Jesus Christ are called to a life of obedience to God’s will, enabled by the Holy Spirit. A key part of this obedience is the fellowship with other believers in and through the local church.

We believe in Christ's second coming and man's eternal judgment. The redeemed through Christ will experience eternal life in the presence and peace of God. Those not receiving Christ will experience eternal life without God and eternal punishment.
