Each month we are highlighting a VVBC local or global mission point. We encourage our church family to find a place to serve, invest and support.
MONTHLY MISSIONS SPOTLIGHT:
MISSIONARY CHASE REYNOLDS
Chase Reynolds is a Bible translation and missions consultant and has served with Wycliffe Bible Translators for 15 years. He and his wife, Kelli, and their 3 boys lived in Papua, Indonesia working with the Yetfa language for over 12 years. In addition to the Yetfa translation, he has consulted for and/or contributed to translation projects in 15 other languages. In June of 2021, Chase and his family returned to the States to continue working in Bible Translation and to serve as the director of the World Missions Ministry.
LOCAL. GLOBAL. ETERNAL
At Valley View, we believe it is the privilege and responsibility of the local church to fulfill the Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20. The Great Commission involves evangelizing the lost and making disciples through the transformational power of Jesus Christ.
Whether we are serving a LOCAL ministry in our community or on a GLOBAL trip to share the love of Christ, we are being the hands and feet of Jesus and making an ETERNAL impact on those around us.
Volunteers from Valley View serve in various ministries including Royal Family Kids, Tuscaloosa Soup Kitchen, Operation Christmas Child and Choices Pregnancy Center. Valley View volunteers are also involved in short term mission trips to participate in construction projects, medical missions, evangelism and discipleship.
GIVING
Valley View designates a portion of its annual budget to mission support. We partner with local ministries to help meet the needs of the surrounding community. We also provide financial support to several oversees missionaries to support the work of the Gospel all around the world.
OPPORTUNITES TO SERVE
Whether we are serving a LOCAL ministry in our community or on a GLOBAL trip to share the love of Christ, we are being the hands and feet of Jesus and making an ETERNAL impact on those around us.

MISSSIONARY SUPPORT
EDDIE WILLIAMS | TURKANA
In Turkana, Eddie's ministry is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ while equipping His disciples through education and experience to establish New Testament churches. This is partly accomplished through the Landmark Baptist Bible Institute in Turkana and adult literacy programs in churches.
While many villages still practice ancestor worship and rely on witchdoctors, others have proven to be very receptive to the Gospel. Please pray for the Turkana people that the Lord would continue to "open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God." Acts 26:18
All can PRAY, Many can GIVE, Some can GO, to TURKANA!
