HBD VIVE 🥳 Est. 2012
What an incredible ride! 
6 years for me and we’re just getting started. I don’t know how much more I can say about the gift I’ve found in this place. From day 1, I knew I was meant to be here… and have grown into that truth everyday since then. I found HOME at VIVE in one of the darkest times in my life. When HOPE was hard to come by and my light had grown dim. Before I could convince myself that my brother had tricked me, my heart was gripped by the creativity I met at the front door. The atmosphere was familiar to me… in awe of the attention to every detail, THIS was a house that knew the Great Creator God… never settling for ordinary but pressing toward the mark of excellence in every passion… because He first gave us His BEST… yes… I knew I was meant to be here. This artist knew I’d find refuge with other creatives yearning to beckon heaven to earth in every possible way imaginable… 
So I danced…
And sang…
And acted 😳 
And photographed…
And filmed…
And wrote…
And created…
 
And then accepted a job?! Wait what?  God, was this Your plan all along?! Wow… I don’t know what else to say but YES. In the same way I knew this was home upon entering that first day… I KNEW this opportunity was more than I could have dreamed of or imagined… yep it is that and so much more. No cap. This is the BEST JOB I’VE EVER HAD (dm me for proof lol)

 
Pastor adamsmallcombe and pastor keirasmallcombe thank you for your bold vision and audacious faith that let these dreams out the bag to the benefit of vive.church THANK YOU for entrusting us with the vision to run with it, and for guiding and correcting us along the way. Thank you for your grace and wisdom when we have carried the vision without owning the cost. And THANK YOU for inviting us to partner with you in the greatest mission on earth. 

This is the BEST JOB I’ve ever had.
