The GO Team is pleased to announce the support of Shoestring Valley Community Church for the pioneering ministry of the Scott Family with the unreached Berber people of Morocco. This is an amazing opportunity for Shoestring to directly support the Gospel of Jesus Christ going to an unreached people group. Please join GO in praying for the Scotts, for the English School and for the Berber people and praise God for this opportunity to be a part of His kingdom work!

If you would like to support the school, you can do so by:

• praying (check out the prayer guides in the lobby)
• Making a financial contribution
• Or even serving alongside the Scotts in Morocco!

Want to learn more? Contact Summer Phillips at 360-978-4866. Thanks for your prayers!  

If we are going to know the Lord and make him known, we must be transformed by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:2). 

Central to that renewing is regular time in God's word.  You’ll find two different Bible reading plans in the wall rack in the lobby.  Pick up one today and enjoy a year of being encouraged, challenged and equipped by God's inspired word.

Our Church Motto

Teaching and living the truth of God’s grace.

Our Church Purpose Statement

SVCC has a vision to minister three realities near and far.  We aim to be a place:

• where sin-prone, sin-bound people regularly experience God’s grace, so that they might be saved and eagerly grow in Christ.
• where grace-loved people are trained to apply relevant biblical truth, so that grace rebuilds lost foundations of spiritual, personal, family, and community life.
• where grace-loved and truth-trained people gratefully pass along the good things in Christ that they’ve received so that the chain of grace continues unbroken.

Our Church Covenant

• We commit ourselves, by the grace of God
• to build up our fellow Christians.
• to be active participants in congregational life.
• to guard the unity and purity of the church.
• to advance the mission of the church.

Our Church Mission Statement

Our mission is Christ’s mission – extending his kingdom by sending out his people to reach the world with his gospel.  This will be done:

• by equipping our members to become effective disciple-makers in their personal sphere of influence.
• by planting disciple-making churches in Lewis County, and
• by adopting an unreached people group and laboring to see them won to Christ.
