How We Work

The VC LTDRG is guided by a steering committee made up of the chairs of each of the following committees. Committees are focused on specific aspects of recovery.

The individual committees have separate meetings. Contact committee chairs for details on meeting times and locations. As of 2022, committees are focusing on documenting lessons and integrating best practices into preparedness plans as part of the Ventura County VOAD.

Holy Eucharist

Sunday, February 5, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Worship in the Episcopal Church rests on scripture and the traditions of the elegant language of the Book of Common Prayer. While the worship might seem more formal than spontaneous, we reliably read scripture every time we worship together, and we follow the liturgy that has stood the test of time. Our worship is in letting the liturgy carry us along into a deeper spiritual awareness and connection with God.
