ACHIEVING SPIRITUAL GROWTH
SERVICES
If you're look for our church building, you won't find it. Victory Life Apostolic exists to take the gospel of Jesus Christ beyond the walls and into the streets—preaching repentance, baptizing in His name, and leading souls to the infilling of the Holy Ghost, as in Acts 2:38. We are committed to going where people are, making disciples, and demonstrating the power of God through prayer, truth, and Spirit-led ministry.

Why We Changed Our Name to Victory Life Apostolic Church
We want to share something important with you about our church family. After much prayer and seeking God’s direction, we felt led to update our assembly name. What was once Victory Life Center is now Victory Life Apostolic Church.
This change is not just about a new sign or a new look—it’s about clarity of identity and mission.
Victory Life remains at the heart of who we are—because in Christ we walk in victory, and His life flows through us.
Apostolic declares our faith and doctrine. We stand firmly on the foundation of the Apostles’ teaching (Acts 2:42), proclaiming the oneness of God, baptism in Jesus’ name, and the infilling of the Holy Ghost.
Church reminds us that we are not just a center, but a body—a living, called-out assembly of believers committed to loving God, serving people, and making disciples.
This name better reflects who we are, what we believe, and where God is leading us. We are not changing direction—we’re sharpening focus. Our mission is the same: to be a place where lives are transformed by the power of Jesus Christ.
We invite you to continue this journey with us as Victory Life Apostolic Church—a place of truth, love, and Spirit-filled power.

"I don't believe that Victory Life Apostolic is my church. This is Christ's church & HE is the head of it! I am just merely a servant doing what God wants! Church should be a place where miracles happen, deliverance takes place & victory is introduced to those who are in the midst of spiritual battles & are looking for answers. I have regrettably went to other churches where I felt worse leaving than I did going in. Too much condemnation & judgement - especially from the ministry. I have been in the ministry for more than 33 years & have heard & seen things going on in the church that would make the devil blush. I am committed to upholding the Word of God in truth & administering it in love. People don't need to be ruled, they need to be loved!" ~ Bishop Gary W. Lones
