he Valleys acknowledges as its sole Head, Jesus Christ, the Son of God and Savior of the world. We acknowledge as brothers and sisters in Christ all who share in this confession. We look to the Word of God in the Scriptures, and to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, to prosper its creative and redemptive work in the world. We claim as our own the faith of the historic Church expressed in the ancient creeds and reclaimed in the basic insights of the Protestant Reformers.
e affirm the responsibility of the Church in each generation to make this faith our own in accordance with the teaching of our Lord and the practice prevailing among evangelical Christians. We recognize two sacraments: Baptism and the Lord's Supper.
