Who we are

A gift to the community, open since 2013

We truly have a heart for all the people of Des Moines.

Our story

Owned and operated by Valley Church. Built for everyone.

Valley Community Center is owned and operated by Valley Church as a gift to the community. Our facility and our work is an expression of the church’s highest calling: to love God and to love our neighbors.

Valley Community Center officially opened its doors at its Grand Opening celebration on June 7, 2013. Since that time we have welcomed thousands of guests and continue to work toward serving and cultivating relationships with the community. We seek to create good will in the community through good works and partnership, to reach diverse groups, and ultimately to impact as many as possible in the Des Moines area.

We truly have a heart for all the people of Des Moines.
