Valley's Mission Ministries

A portion of Valley's annual budget, supported through pledges, is allocated for Mission.  Through this, we offer financial support to a variety of projects and provide for some of our hands-on local experiences as well.  We also do several special collections, including food drives, item collections, and special offerings.  

For the first time this last year (2016-2017), we co-sponsored a refugee family with Congregational Church Brookfield through Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services (IRIS). 


Valley supports a wide variety of mission projects locally, nationally, and globally.  Below is a list of just some of our recipients in 2017.  Click on their names to learn more about each.
