Valley Legacy society

The Valley Legacy Society (VLS) helps provide a long term foundation for VPC.  Members of the VLS desire to continue God’s work past their lifetimes to grow as a Church and to spread God’s love to our congregation and community members for years to come.  There are no start up or annual fees.  Simply name the Foundation in your estate plan.
 A will is the cornerstone of a well-organized estate plan, but it can also proclaim your Christian faith, demonstrating your faithful stewardship to future generations. For more information about leaving a gift in your will, visit our special will website at christianwill.org/vpc and enjoy our collection of free "faith and family" resources created with you in mind.
The VLS is comprised of members who have designated the Foundation in their wills or trusts.  If you are ready to become of member of the VLS, simply complete this form and return it to the Finance office at , or mail to the address at the bottom of the form. A Trustee will contact you soon!
