vci-church-planting-history-pt1  vci-church-planting-history-pt2  vci-church-planting-history-pt3  vci-church-planting-history-pt4

This pioneer, grass roots, apostolic and prophetic movement with a strong church planting heart is purpose driven. We are dedicated to reach as many people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ as is possible before His return, fulfilling the GREAT commission.

Drs. George and Hazel Hill are the founders of Victory Churches International, a church planting organization in 40 nations around the world. The Victory movement began in 1979, with the Hills planting and pastoring their first church in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. This soon grew to be one of the largest charismatic churches in Canada at that time. In 1988, with five churches established in southern Alberta, Victory Churches of Canada was formed.

Victory Churches of Canada quickly became the largest church planting organization in North America. The organization's explosive growth rapidly expanded into the United States, Europe, Asia and Africa. The establishment of numerous Victory Bible Colleges, Christian Schools and TV & Radio ministries accompanied the growth of this grass roots organization. Numerous ministries have grown out of Victory Churches International including the national Canada Family Action Coalition.

Victory Missions Department is active in many third world nations building orphanages, implementing literacy and skills training programs and feeding the poor. Leaders are trained and released within their nation to win the lost for Christ. Our motto is simple. We will not just hand out fruit but we will plant as many trees as is possible in every nation through the planting of church-planting churches. Every tree has a limit to it's potential growth but a forest has no limit as to how large it can grow! We will not just hand out fish to the nations but will give the nationals a hook and teach them how to fish. We will think globally and act locally.

Women of Victory Ministries, is a ministry by Victory women, to women and children around the world. The Ministry focuses on educating, training and releasing women into their God-given destinies, causing them to become respected, productive members of our societies.

The longer-term objective of Victory Churches International is to establish at least another 200 churches across Canada and another 3000 churches around the world by the year 2010. The international head office for Victory Churches International is located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Head offices are also located in each nation where the Victory Family of Churches has spread over the past 30 years of ministry, with an emphasis on Orange County, California where Drs. George and Hazel Hill reside.

For the full history and background of Victory Churches International, order the autobiography :

Adventure, Romance and Revival  by Drs. George and Hazel Hill

This is the story of two adventurous people from the opposite sides of the world, who left their families and countries in search of adventure. Their encounter with Jesus Christ set them on a dynamic course and adventure that has affected hundreds of thousands of lives around the world. Drs. George and Hazel Hill are the founders of Victory Churches International, one of the fastest growing church planting movements in North America.

Dear Reader,

We are glad you have found us today and we welcome you to surf our website for more information.

I am the Missions Director for VCI; we are an Apostolic, Prophetic Church Planting Movement. Our purpose and vision is very clear:

We are determined to reach every available person, at every available time, with every available means, with the life changing gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Our focus is to teach all nations, mobilize the body of Christ to action, causing everyone to find their place in the body, causing everyone to find their destiny. We believe in raising up the nationals to reach their own nation, giving the people a hand up and out of poverty.

We do send missionaries to the nations to help train church leaders, businessmen and women to start small businesses, not just giving them a fish, but giving them a hook and teaching them how to fish.

We believe in the Five Fold Ministry working together to perfect the saints for the work of the ministry according to Eph 4:11-12. Victory Churches International is a continuation of the book of Acts and functions much the same as you see the church function in Acts. If you are interested in ministry to children please check our children’s ministry web site out at www.victorychildrenshomes.com If you sense that you have the same spirit as Victory we would like to hear from you.

It’s Our Time!

By Dr. George Hill

dr-george-2009-3

A Time to Rejoice, Reflect and Project!

We give God all the glory for all of the wonderful things that have been accomplished through the Victory Church movement over the last thirty years. It is a miracle! The movement began in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, on Mother’s Day, May 13, 1979. Twenty five people, including babies and children, showed up for the first service of the first church in the Victory Movement.

Today, Victory Churches International is a fast growing movement that quickly spread to over 40 nations of the world with over 2000 churches, Christian schools, Bible colleges, orphanages, humanitarian programs, and a whole host of other creative outreach ministries.

The movement also gave birth to the “Canadian Family Action Coalition” and Canada’s first ever 24 hour Christian Television station, which became known as the “Miracle Channel”.

We rejoice over the past victories that the Lord has so graciously given us. We have killed our Bears, Lions, and our Goliaths. Over the last 30 years, God has prepared and positioned us for what is about to happen in these last days.

Jesus had thirty years of preparation for three years of world changing ministry. I believe Hazel, myself and this movement have been prepared and positioned for a time such as this. I believe that every thing we have done is in preparation for what we as a movement are about to do.

I believe God is getting ready to answer Christ’s prayer from John 17: that we would be one as the Father and the Son are one and that the glory that is on them would be upon us. That the world might know that God sent Jesus His Son and that in believing they might have life through His Name. Jesus firstly prayed for His eleven disciples, and then in John 17:20 He said, “I do not pray for these alone but also for those who will believe in Me through their word.” And again in John 14:12 Jesus said, “He who believes in me, the same and even greater works will he do because I go unto My Father.” That is you and I! That is Victory Churches International!

We see a partial fulfillment of Jesus’ prayer in the Book of Acts when His glory came upon the 120 in the upper room in Jerusalem, “They were with one accord in one place and suddenly there came a sound from heaven like a mighty rushing wind and it filled the whole house where they were sitting” (Acts 2:1-2).

The initial fulfillment of Christ’s prayer caused a great outpouring of miracles throughout the whole Book of Acts. Power in the Name of the resurrected Christ caused the sick to be healed, devils to be cast out, the dead to be raised and whole cities to come to know Christ as Lord and Savoir. They were first called Christians in Antioch by unbelievers because they walked like Christ; they talked like Christ, and did the same things that he did. The 120 one accord believers in the upper room, worked miracles of healing and deliverance and they did it all in the Name of Jesus and passed the glory on to Him. “why do you look so intently at us, as though by our own power or godliness we made this man walk? It’s through faith in His Name, (The Name of Jesus) that has made this man strong” (Acts 3:12-16)

The complete fulfillment of Christ's prayer is about to happen. The glory of the latter church will be greater than the glory of the former church. The Book of Acts church was just the early light rain, but the end time church will receive the early and the latter rain; both being poured out at the same time (James 5:7-8) for the purpose of gathering in the last great harvest of souls before the catching away of the saints to meet Christ in the air. (1 Thess 4:13-18). The best is yet to come!

God spoke to my heart at the beginning of this Victory Movement and said, “This is just a foretaste of what you will experience in it’s fullness at a later date in your ministry.” Thirty years of preparation for the last great end-time outpouring and ingathering! God has been preparing small groups of believers all around the world, 12 here, 70 there, 120 some place else. Groups of people that are mature and can come together in one accord. Churches who know how to “stand fast in one spirit, with one mind, striving together for the faith of the gospel” (Phil 1:27).

Are you ready? If not, join a team that is ready, submit and do your part and stay in unity. It’s manifestation time, it’s our time, and it’s your time. What a time to be alive!

Jesus isn’t coming back for a weak, defeated, depressed, bankrupt Church. No! He’s coming back for a glorious, victorious, militant, miraculous, triumphant Church, and Victory Churches International will be a vital part of it!

Jesus said to his disciples: “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth” (Acts 1:8).

When you reach the ends of the earth you will find a Victory Church!

Dr. George Hill is the President and Founder of Victory Churches International.
