Welcome to Shepherd of Valley Lutheran Church!

Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church is a growing, diverse family of Christians that have come together to form a close, caring community centered in Jesus Christ. We are part of The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. We warmly embrace people from all religious and cultural backgrounds. Our preaching is boldly biblical; our theology, traditional and conservative; our ways, evangelical; and our attitude, caring and embracing. We invite you to join us in serving and praising our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.


Last Sunday:  

Pentecost is one of the grand festivals of the church year, celebrating the ministry and power of the Holy Spirit in our lives and in the church. The POWER to believe and the POWER to minister! We spoke of that power, the practical difference it makes, how to "tap" into it, how to gain more of it.

New Instrument!

One of the many changes is that we're retired our OLD (really old) organ and replacing it with a beautiful, new, modern, Kawai Digital instrument that we're incorporating into our extensive sound system. It will be in place on Sunday and we'll begin using it on June 3. The difference will amaze you.... and it has endless possibilities! The technology and sound here have come light-years of late! Most of the money for this has been donated already, but there will be some opportunities for you to contribute, too! Our thanks to the several that worked HARD to research and study and finally make the choice here! We pray it's a blessing to our worship, to Him and to us.


Kids!www.jcplayzone.com Games, crafts, puzzels, coloring, all with a Christian perspective. Mom and Dad have a site, too! www.JCParentZone.com This is a ministry of our LCMS Lutheran Laymen's League - Lutheran Hour Ministries.
