About this church
Shepherd of the Valley in Surprise, Arizona, is a confessional Lutheran congregation affiliated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod. It holds worship on Saturday evenings at 6 p.m. and Sunday mornings at 9:30 a.m. at 14650 West Bell Road. Worship is liturgical and traditional in style, built around prayers, praises, and thanks, with the preaching of the Bible at the center of each service. Services can also be watched online through the church's YouTube channel, and the website posts recent sermons and a sermon archive for those who want to hear the preaching beforehand.
A Bible class meets Tuesdays at 6 p.m., and a Zoom Bible study is listed on the website for those who cannot attend in person. The pastor offers Bible information classes for anyone who wants to learn what the church teaches or explore membership. Casual dress is welcome, and a nursery is available that can also serve as a cry room or a space for nursing mothers. The congregation began as a mission in the late 1990s, held its first service in the current building in 2000, and added a Bible class and fellowship building in 2011. Service times can change, so confirm them with the church office or on the website before visiting.
