Welcome to the web site of Valley Baptist Church. I hope you find it informative and helpful. Valley baptist is a small rural Southern Baptist Church. We are located on 10 acres along Holter Road two miles north of Jefferson, Maryland. We are a Bible believing, Bible teaching church. Our worship service is traditional. We like to think we have a loving, caring church fellowship.
If you currently do not have a Church, I would like to invite you to join with us in worship. We live in difficult times and Jesus Christ is our hope and our strength. One of our goals is to welcome visitors and make them feel at home in God’s community.
If you are looking for that perfect church, well, I am sorry, you won’t find it here. You will find ordinary people with every day struggles and difficulties — trying to put Jesus first in our lives. I hope you will consider a visit one Sunday. Perhaps the lord will lead you in our direction to join us in His service.
May the Lord Richly Bless You,
Pastor Larry
Welcome, and thank you for visiting our web page. What is Valley Baptist Church all about? Let me share a passage of Scripture with you.
And one of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “What commandment is the foremost of all?” Jesus answered, “The foremost is, ‘Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is one Lord; and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ “The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” (NAS, Mark 12:28-31)
Jesus said loving God is the most important of all the commandments. But what does loving God really mean? It begins with a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Jesus Himself taught that a follower of His would then do certain things.
- Put God Above All Else
- Know and Obey God’s Commandments
- Trust in God and Jesus
- Be Committed
- Be Humble before God and Men
- Make Time for Prayer
It is our desire to see these truths become reality in the lives of believers and then, that they take that deep love for God and share it with a world that desperately needs it thus fulfilling Christ second command.
If you seek a Bible believing, Bible preaching, loving, caring fellowship that wants to see believers be obedient to our Savior and make a difference in the world we invite you to join us and make that happen. We look forward to seeing you.
In Jesus Name,
Pastor Mike
