NextSteps
As you get connected at Valley View, we want to help you continue growing as a Follower of Jesus. Our mission is to be people who daily love God and the people in our community and world, and our vision is to live that out through how we Love Dallas, Live Free, and Lead Others. Discipleship is a lifelong journey, and this phase focuses on practical steps like Gather, Grow, Give, Serve, and Pray—steps that help you deepen your faith and live out God’s purpose daily. Looking for a next step? Check out the steps below that we have in place for you.
Baptism
Baptism is one of the most important steps you can take in following Jesus. It’s a public declaration of your faith and a picture of what He has done for you—your old life is gone, and you are raised to walk in new life with Him. At Valley View, we practice baptism by immersion, just as Jesus modeled, and we celebrate baptisms during our Sunday worship services. If you’re ready to take this step, we’d love to walk alongside you.
Gather
Gathering together is at the heart of what it means to follow Jesus. Each Sunday at 10:30 AM, we come together as a church family for worship, teaching, and encouragement. Being with one another in community strengthens our faith, keeps us connected, and reminds us that we’re not walking this journey alone.
Life Groups
Life Groups make a big church feel small. These groups are designed to help you build meaningful relationships, study God’s Word together, and walk through life side by side with others. They’re one of the best ways to grow in your faith while being supported in community.
Church Center App
The Church Center App is the easiest way to stay connected at Valley View. With it, you can sign up for events, register for a Life Group, give, check your kids in on Sundays, and even find ways to serve. It’s all in one place, making it simple to take your next step.
Grow
Following Jesus is a lifelong journey, and spiritual growth is essential. We don’t just want to know about God—we want to know Him personally and allow His Word to shape every part of our lives. Growing spiritually helps us live out our faith and equips us to live as followers of Jesus daily.
Grow Class
Every Sunday at 9:00 AM, we offer Grow Classes for all ages. These classes give you the opportunity to dig deeper into Scripture, ask questions, and build a stronger foundation for your faith before gathering for worship at 10:30.
Groups & Classes
Beyond Sunday mornings, Valley View offers a variety of groups and classes that meet throughout the week. These are intentional spaces where you can learn, grow, and connect with others who are also seeking to follow Jesus.

Give
Generosity is more than a transaction—it’s an act of worship that reflects our trust in God and our commitment to His mission. Your giving helps fund ministries that lead every generation into a full life in Christ and support our vision to Love Dallas, Live Free, and Lead Others. Whether it's one-time or recurring, your contributions make a real impact.
Ways to Give
Online: Make one-time or recurring gifts through our secure Church Center Giving platform.
In Person: Give during worship services or drop off gifts at the church office.
Designated Giving: In addition to regular giving, you can support specific ministries and initiatives:
JustOne – every one-dollar bill given on Sunday goes directly toward walk-in benevolence needs during the week, meeting practical needs in our community.
Beyond Campaign– our yearly generosity campaign that helps move Valley View forward in ministry and mission.
Students – help send middle school and high school students to camps, retreats, and trips where life-changing moments happen.
Designated Initiatives – throughout the year we have multiple initiatives that you can participate in whether it may be supporting our mission trips, community outreach during the Holidays, or partnering with a specific Missionary.
When you give—whether regularly, through a campaign, or to a specific ministry—you are investing in what God is doing through Valley View and beyond.
Serve
Serving is one of the best ways to live out your faith and make a difference in the lives of others. At Valley View, we believe God has gifted every person to lead and serve in unique ways, and when we use those gifts together, the church thrives. Serving isn’t just about filling a spot—it’s about being part of something bigger as we live out our vision to Love Dallas, Live Free, and Lead Others.
Join a Team
There are plenty of opportunities to get connected by joining a team. Whether it’s welcoming guests on Sunday mornings, welcoming our church to service on the First Impressions team, serving in our NextGen teams, leading on the Worship team, supporting behind the scenes with the Tech team, helping with Groundskeeping, or offering a hand in other ministry areas—there’s a place for you to use your gifts and make an impact.
Lead at our Events
In addition to serving weekly, there are also chances to step in and lead at one-time events throughout the year. Our Easter Eggstravaganza, Fall Block Party, and Vacation Bible School (VBS) each bring hundreds of families to our campus and require an army of leaders to make them happen. These events are amazing opportunities to serve our community, meet new people, and see God work in big ways.
Pray
Prayer is our Plan and our Strategy. We believe nothing of eternal significance happens apart from it. That’s why prayer is not just something we talk about, but something we practice. Each year, our leadership sets aside strategic prayers that guide and shape our ministry, keeping us focused on God’s direction.
Care Team
Our Care Team exists to walk with people through prayer and encouragement. If you have a heart for care, you can be part of the team that writes cards, visits those in the hospital, and faithfully prays for the needs of our church family. And if you or a loved one ever need extra support—whether that’s receiving a card, a visit, or someone to come alongside you in prayer—the Care Team is here for you.
Prayer Requests
We also want to pray for you. If you have something on your heart, you can submit a prayer request anytime, and our staff and Care Team will join you in bringing those needs before God. No matter what you’re facing, you don’t have to walk through it alone. You can also text us at, 833-538-5085, anytime for urgent requests.
