Pastor Eifert worked in the financial and pharmaceutical fields for the first 12 years of his career before surrendering to full-time Christian ministry.  After this dramatic career change, he was ordained to the ministry in 1998 and has served as the Pastor of Family Ministries and Counseling at Valley Forge Baptist Temple for the past 20 years.  He opened the Valley Forge Biblical Counseling Center (VFBCC) in 2013 where he serves as Director.  He has his Master’s Degree in Pastoral Ministry and Biblical Counseling and is also  a certified biblical counselor with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC).  He began the annual Competent to Counsel Conference in 2012 to help train pastors and laypeople within the local church to become effective biblical counselors and reach the community with the gospel.   He and his wife, Ann, have been married for 30 years and have 3 children.

Susan was raised in a godly, Christian home and had a strong desire to serve the Lord in ministry. Upon graduation from a Christian university with a degree in business, she married her best friend, Sam. God has allowed the two of them to serve together in ministry for the last 40+ years in churches in Virginia, Canada and Pennsylvania. Throughout this time, she has counseled countless numbers of teen, single, and married ladies to develop a closer walk with the Lord. She received her NANC certification in 2013. Susan and Sam have one daughter and son-in-law, who are also serving the Lord together in ministry. They also have three grandchildren.

Raised in a Bible-believing Pastor's home, John Bilboe learned the value of Biblical principles in one's life. Valley Forge Baptist gave him the opportunity to apply those principles as a member of the Board of Directors of Cornerstone Prison Ministry where he also serves as a preacher. He is a Sunday School Teacher at VFB where he leads an Adult Bible Fellowship called "New Horizons." Inspired by the need for soul winners, John trains men and women in "Evangelism Explosion," a step-by-step process in leading someone to Jesus Christ. With a driving compassion for those struggling with addictions, John leads a group every Friday Night in VFB's "Reformer's Unanimous" Faith -based addictions recovery program. His guidance enables those in need to learn and apply the Word of God in overcoming any and all worldly challenges. His spirit-led pursuit guides people to follow God's leading when faced with the trials of life. This passion has resulted in earning and receiving the Certification for Biblical Counseling from ACBC, all to the glory of God!
