A SHOW FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY

"Tricks & Truth" is a one-hour performance by Christian illusionist David Laflin, who appears at churches and other venues across the country. You'll be amused, awed, and inspired by his mix of physical illusions and spiritual truths. Though geared toward elementary-age kids, the show will delight people of all ages. The show is Friday, November 15, at 7 p.m. in the Sanctuary. Tickets are $3 and are now on sale. Click here to go to the ticket form.

JOIN THE PRAYER FORCE

Anyone can join the Valley Prayer Force! We're inviting all attendees to use our Prayer Force Journal to record your prayers and help you listen to God's responses. You can join at any time. Pick up a journal in the Welcome Area before or after a worship service.

TRANSITION UPDATES

Jay Abramson announced in February that God is making it clear it's time for him to start a new phase of ministry. After nearly 30 years in ministry at Valley Community Baptist Church, including 25 years as Senior Pastor, he announced that he would be retiring in 2020.

The Senior Pastor transition process has begun and is going well. Read all about the background and next steps at our Senior Pastor Transition page.
