The Rev

I'm a second career pastor and have been here at Valmont Church since August 1996. I graduated from Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia, but fortunately God called me to minister here in the Rockies, where I have lived much of my life. I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, but since my father was a career Air Force chaplain, I did not live in Utah until I returned for college at Utah State University.

Following my graduation, I was commissioned in the Air Force and served for twenty years. Most of that time I worked as an aircraft maintenance officer, and logistics manager.

The Rev. Stephen E. Bird, Pastor

I believe God has called Valmont to minister in a special way that larger churches can't. Our challenge here at Valmont is to be responsive to God's unique call to us - to minister in Christ's name and share his love - in our family, in our work and in our community.

"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." (1 Cor 10:31)
