our story...
Valley Rock Church
Valley Rock Church began as an inspiration planted by God in Pastor Wes to create a Christ centered, Holy Spirit empowered, thriving body of believers; fulfilling the great commission of Christ in the Dayton region. Having many years in the world of night clubs and rock music, Pastor Miller has a heart for the broken and lost. Valley Rock Church was birthed and launched in the spring of 2020. Exciting things are in store for our future as VRC becomes full grown!
