Valley Presbyterian Church has an international reputation as a destination wedding setting, but for some 350 people in the Bay area, it’s more than a wedding, or even a Sunday, destination:  it’s our home.

Because of our proximity to Stanford and Silicon Valley, a lot of us work in academia or technology.  Because of our love of and passion for the arts, many of us are working artists, writers, and musicians – or aspiring to be!  We follow Christ in the teachings of the Reform tradition (PCUSA), though individually, our paths vary.  What we share is a longing for God, a connection to the community, and meaningful ways to serve the wider world.

Even though we are a destination church, we believe that we are called to risk the Spirit-led journey. And we are really one another’s traveling companions and support team along the way.
