"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” - John 1:5

You are not alone.
You Matter.

Living in a broken world means that oftentimes life can be hard. At SVA Church we believe that God is in the business of healing, restoring, and recovering even the darkest of areas of our minds, hearts, and relationships. 

God's plan for healing often includes the use of valuable tools, professionals, and resources and our hope is that those listed below meet you in whatever season you may find yourself.
