Baptism

Church of the Valley is a place where people have
an opportunity to grow in faith. We believe that it
takes a lifetime to learn what it means to follow
Jesus, to discover his saving grace, to build a
relationship with Him and to receive Him as
Lord of one's life. Baptism is an important part
of this Journey with God.
