What can I expect?

what is a valley shepherd CHURCH service like?

Our Sunday service begins at 10:45am and last about an hour and fifteen minutes. Service begins with our worship team leading the church in a variety of songs from hymns to current worship songs. Lyrics are visible on two large screens. You are invited to enter into worship of the Lord in whatever way you feel comfortable - standing, sitting, clapping, lifting your hands, etc. The altar is always available as a place of prayer during the service.


You will hear a message from our Pastor that is filled with God's Word and applicable to daily life. You can find videos of past services on our website to get a feel for our Sunday service.
