VSM FALL RETREAT
Fall Retreat is a time for our middle and high school students to get away, grow deeper in their walk with Jesus, and grow closer together. They will spend the weekend worshiping through song, large group teaching, small groups, games, fellowship, and more! Fall Retreat is at Shocco Springs Conference Center in Talladega, AL, and runs November 6th-8th.
MOM FELLOWSHIP GROUPS INTEREST MEETING
Public school, private school, and homeschool mom groups give mothers in our church family, as well as guests from our community, a place to experience meaningful fellowship, encouragement, and spiritual growth. Through authentic relationships, moms can walk alongside women in similar seasons of life while deepening their faith. Jesus modeled the importance of community by doing life and ministry with others. As moms encourage one another and point each other to Christ, those who may have felt isolated can find belonging, build lasting relationships, and become more connected to the life of the church. Motherhood was never meant to be lived in isolation. Moms need each other; they don't need to “mom” alone. If you are interested in joining one of these groups or learning more about them, please join us for this time of fellowship.

WOMEN'S D-GROUP YEAR-ROUND INFO REQUEST
D-Groups are made up of about four or five women who are believers in Christ. "They intentionally equip one another with the Word of God through accountable relationships empowered by the Holy Spirit in order to replicate faithful followers of Christ." (Growing Up by Robby Gallaty) D Groups require a high level of commitment and accountability and are perfect for the new believer or those further along in their walk.
If you are interested in being in a D-Group or would like more information when D-Groups are being formed, please fill out the form HERE.
MEN'S BIBLE STUDY REGISTRATION (YEAR-ROUND)
Click HERE for more info and to register for one of our Men’s Bible Studies.
MEN'S D-GROUP YEAR-ROUND INFO REQUEST
The goal of a D-Group is to help you grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ and maturity as a committed Christian. A “Life Group”, “Small Group” and “Bible Study” are all valuable but a D-Group is not the same as it takes a deeper dive into the word of God with increased accountability. Valleydale Church strongly encourages participation in a D-Group if you are willing and dedicated, but not as a substitute for being part of a Life Group. A D-Group requires a high level of personal commitment requiring daily study, scripture memorization, prayer and preparation for weekly meetings. The way a D-Group functions helps to promote your transformation into the likeness of Christ on a path of sanctification.
If you are interested in learning more about men’s D-Groups or you would like to sign up to join a D-Group, click HERE.
WIDOWS BIBLE STUDY FELLOWSHIP
Thursday mornings
What are the promises of God? An internet search will provide you with thousands of answers. But not all of them draw you closer to God. Standing on the Promises is an answer to your desire to know Him and His promises better. We will be using this collection of short devotional readings, written by Our Daily Bread authors, that reveal Bible truths to remind you of one of God’s sure promises every day of the year. Be strengthened in your faith and encouraged by God’s Word. No book is required for this class.
