This has been our motto for many years. We find it an opportunity and a privilege to meet new people. If you are visiting or looking for a church home, please feel free to stop by. If you are interested in uniting with this part of God's people, please call the Church office. We, the Session of Shepherd of the Valley Presbyterian Church of Mc Calla, Alabama, reaffirm our belief in the Holy Bible as the authoritative and divinely-inspired Word of God. In our decision-making, we pledge to be guided first by the Bible and then by the Books of Order and Confessions, as currently written and ratified by the congregations of the Presbyterian Church. Furthermore, the Session recommits itself and the congregation to continuing its focus on the mission and evangelism work of the Church.
We loved Christ and ministered in His name for more than 125 years at FPCB before we felt a calling to refashion our ministry. The location has changed but the telling of the old, old story of Christ’s love for all has not changed.

This collection is theologically faithful, ecclesiastically appropriate, and organizationally suitable. The Book of Confessions contains the confessions that we have taken vows to receive. It also embodies the Reformed understanding of the way confessions function in the life of the church.
