Spring Social

We’ll gather for fellowship, food, and folk/pop music on Friday, May 2, starting at 5:30 for our Patio Party and continuing in the sanctuary with a Concert featuring Bobby Jo Valentine, an award-winning songwriter and vocalist. It’ll be fun for all ages, and a great time to bring a friend or connect with someone you haven’t seen for a while. You can help us plan for numbers with an RSVP at this link! 

Bobby Jo Valentine

Bobby Jo Valentine’s music exists outside the lines of any genre, but the music’s thoughtful, spirit focused lyrics and catchy melodies reach listeners across all walks of life. The poetic nature and spiritual focus of his stories and songs has resulted in notable awards and a growing, loyal following around the country.  He’s found a voice with original, hopeful songs about the gentle everyday spiritual awakenings of an openhearted life.

 Growing up and emerging out of a Baptist Church of strict lines and sharp edges, Bobby Jo Valentine has emerged into a larger, kinder, more welcoming faith…one that is excited to learn, open to growth, and focused on love.

Along with theatres, house concerts, and many other kinds of stages, Bobby is often invited to offer his stories and songs at faith communities around the nation. Among others, he has been invited to perform for The Wild Goose Festival, the international Emerge Conference, and the 2017 General Synod of the United Church of Christ. His music has won Song of the Year twice at West Coast Songwriter’s Association, and his work has appeared on radio, TV, and feature films. He has performed artist residencies, hosted songwriting workshops, and been involved in helping communities of all types use their spaces and voice in more creative and powerful ways.

Bobby currently hails from Northern California, and is ecstatic any time he can discuss the big questions, challenge the easy answers, and inspire people to move closer to love.
