At Valley Presbyterian, you will meet people at many different places theologically and spiritually. And we love it that way. We want to be a place where our diversity brings us together and where conversation takes us all deeper in our understanding of God. We don’t ask anyone to sign creeds or statements of belief. Our life of faith is a way of being in the world, a faith that shows itself in love.

 

Our faith is a way of wisdom and practice in the footsteps of Jesus of Nazareth. This path is a commitment to the complexity of community, to the paradox of both/and, to transformation of soul, mind and body, and to the flourishing of a just and whole earth. The Jewish and Christian Scriptures are our sacred guide along centuries-old paths that lead us into the universal love of God. Our faith invites us to tell our stories and welcomes questions. We delight in a Mystery that draws us into a future that offers us more than we can ask or imagine as we live a wholehearted and spacious faith.

 

Slowing down, we ask questions and experience the mystery of faith.

​

Seeking the sacred through creativity, playfulness and nature, we nurture our faith.

​

Dropping our masks, we invite each other to be our true selves.

Focusing outward, we build partnerships, create opportunities, seek justice and learn from each other.

Like the Redwoods, supporting one another through the seasons of life, we become rooted in a trusting, loving community.
