Mrs. Valerie oversees our ministry to children ages birth through 5th grade. She loves to help children and adults alike discover the power of the Word of God and if you spend time around her, eventually you will find yourself helping to recreate the parting of the Red Sea, Jesus turning water into wine, or any number of other Bible stories that tell us about the God who loves us and wants to be in relationship with us. Valerie and her husband Dave grew up in St. Louis and found Parkway in 1996, just after they relocated here. With their closest family a thousand miles away, Parkway became a true "church home" in helping them to raise Kaitlin and Andrew and now, she directs her energy into providing the same atmosphere for your family.
