Valley View Mennonite Church (Filer, Idaho, USA)
The Valley View Church of God in Christ, Mennonite congregation in Filer, Idaho, USA was established in 1996. The congregation began when the Buhl congregation's building became crowded. A members' meeting on 26 April 1995 decided to identify a location for beginning a daughter congregation. A plot three miles west of Filer was purchased, and construction began that fall. The first meeting in the new building took place on 17 March 1996.
The congregation also operates the Valley View Country School.
In 2020 the congregation was part of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. The ministers were Doyle Jantz, Kent Wiebe, and Andrew Wiebe.
