WHO WE ARE
RESTORING HOPE
Jesus came restoring hope. In Gospel of Luke 4, He declared that He was anointed to bring good news to the poor, freedom to captives, sight to the blind, and release to the oppressed.
​
What does that mean for us today? Everything. He is alive and still meeting people at their greatest point of need. At the Dream Center, our mission is to be His hands and feet — restoring hope in our community.
RENEWING DREAMS
Life has a way of bringing disappointments, struggles and setbacks. But we do not have to be defined by our past! In Christ, we can dream again of a life that both glorifies Him and brings what Jesus spoke of in John 10 as the abundant life. We are a community of Christ followers who earnestly desire to help each other run the race of life in His truth and His power so that our families can flourish, and our individual lives bear good fruit.
REBUILDING LIVES
We are a people excited to embrace change! God’s principles and ways work to restore our lives as His word gives us a firm foundation upon which to anchor our futures. No matter what age or stage of life, everyone can be free in Him to build lives that work. Today is a new day with new choices. At the Dream Center, we value all lives and strive to equip each individualwith the practical and spiritual tools necessary for their daily success.
OUR
CORE
VALUES
COMPASSION
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
SERVICE
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.” Mark 9:35
WORSHIP
O come let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! Psalm 95:6
JUSTICE
This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. In your hearts do not think evil of each other.’ Zechariah 7: 9-10
UNITY
I in them and you in Me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. John 17:23
FREEDOM
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. John 8:36
SHARE
And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:16
OUR TEAM
VDC Food Pantry Executive Director & Executive Pastor at New Room GMC
Nathan started his work at Victory Dream Center before he could even drive. As a young teen he heard God’s call to ministry and dove into a life of devoted service. For the last 26 years he’s worn dozens of hats from Reality Youth Pastor to Worship Pastor to Financial Administrator to Food Pantry Director to bus driver to pallet jack operator. He currently serves as Executive Pastor of New Room Global Methodist and Food Pantry Executive Director of Victory Dream Center and is pursuing seminary training at Asbury Theological Seminary.Over the years his gifting has been shaped by his passion to see the lost found, the broken healed, and the hungry fed. With his educational background in business administration, Nathan has also built a very successful landscaping business that keeps him in the great outdoors that he loves. He is a devoted husband to Tara and the proud father of Lilibeth, Ryan, Ben, Andrew, Rosemary, and Tiffany. When life threw this couple a curveball with three precious special needs children, Nathan and Tara have found God’s grace to be magnificently sufficient even in trying circumstances. It is from these trenches of real life suffering, they offer the hope, encouragement, and love of Jesus to all they meet.
