OUR STORY

2019

  • Victory Chapel began with a vision in the hearts of Paul and Alli Records, who felt called to bring a spirit of community, worship, and hope to San Marcos.

  • After a year of foundational gatherings — including interest meetings, Bible studies, small groups, and monthly worship services — Victory Chapel officially launched on April 21, 2019, in the San Marcos Rec Hall.

  • Our opening celebration included a community-wide 5,000-piece Egg Hunt in the park, followed by our first worship service in the Rec Hall.

  • This day marked the beginning of our church family, dedicated to worship, prayer, and a shared vision for the future.

2020

  • By February 2020, Victory Chapel found a more permanent home at 312 W Martin Luther King Dr., near the heart of downtown San Marcos. This space became a center for spiritual growth and outreach, where we continued to serve and expand.

2024

  • In May 2024, Paul and Alli Records accepted a new ministry role in St. Louis, MO.

  • With their transition, God called Tim and Susan Vacca to lead Victory Chapel, guiding us into a new season of growth and community impact.

Today

  • Our church family continues to flourish. As part of this growth, we launched the “Victory Promise” campaign, aimed at securing a larger facility to better serve our congregation and community.

Victory Chapel remains closely connected to our founding church, New Life Austin (www.newlifeaustin.com).
