The nominating committee invites you to pick up a nomination form in the church lobby.

We need your prayerful participation and we need people willing to serve as elders and deacons. If you decide to nominate someone, remember to check with them first and then submit the completed form to a member of the committee. Nominations to the committee are due May 1! Please continue praying for the committee and everyone involved in this process. Thank you!

Join us for a spaghetti supper to fundraise for our short-term mission trip to Nicaragua!

Eat in Fellowship Hall, on playground or take it to go. Donate here or pay at the event (Donating does NOT automatically register you for the event)!

Please register by April 28 so we have correct numbers!

A Night of Worship & Prayer in the Presence of Jesus

Every Other Tuesday
April 2, April 16, April 30, May 14, May 28
7:00 - 8:30PM
Valley Hope Church

We invite you to gather with us as we lay a new foundation of consistent, Spirit-led prayer and worship. Bring "what you have" — your offering — to these gatherings whether that is an instrument, song, scripture verse, poem, friend, your children, paint and easel, a spirit of joy, a grieving heart, or a head full of doubt. Our desire is to become more aware of Jesus' presence — His offering — in the midst of our interwoven stories and let His Spirit lead us to attune our hearts in worship of Him.  While childcare is not provided, we welcome your children to worship with us.

Let's appreciate our teachers at Owen Middle by providing a lunch for them. Drop off an item at church on Sunday, May 5th, at OMS on Monday, May 6th by 10 a.m. or stay to volunteer and meet the OMS staff! Details are in the sign-up.

We are so excited for the Stapp's, party of 6! Let's help make this transition a little easier by blessing them with meals.

Let's help Becky and Garrett Prewett welcome baby girl Andie Jo, born March 30th by signing up to bring them a meal! 

We would like to invite you to donate at our upcoming blood drive at Valley Hope Church on Thursday, May 30, 2024 from 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM. May is Trauma Awareness Month, as there are always increased trauma cases due to summer travel. We need you to help ensure that blood is on the shelves when it is critically needed.
