Next Child Dedication: October 29th
Child Dedication is an incredible opportunity to take some time as a parent to think about what will matter the most in the life of your child. It is a commitment as a parent to lead your child into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
As a part of the Care Ministry, we have a team of trained, caring volunteers that are available to visit shut-ins and loved ones of Spring Valley Church members or regular attendees who are in a hospital or in hospice care.

This team of volunteers is dedicated to bringing joy to the hearts of those who need it most.
