Valley Bible Church is led by a group of men known as elders. We adopted this form of church government in 1982 in light of the teaching and practice of the early church in the New Testament. The elders oversee all the ministries of our church and provide guidance to our church through prayer and the ministry of the Word. While elders are the overseers of the church, we also have deacons who are the officially recognized servants who serve the church in leading certain ministries. For more information about this topic see our position paper on church leadership.
