From Bro. Sibley:
Jesus said that He came to give life and that more abundantly! (John 10:10) Many people are living today, but not all are living abundantly. I believe that it is God's will for us to be happier and more content in every area of our lives, and when we obey all of God's Word and apply it to our lives correctly, we do indeed begin to live life abundantly. Medina Valley Christian Worship is committed to making a difference in the people of the Medina Valley area's lives by pointing them in the direction of Jesus. Our goal is to first get ready for heaven, and then learn to live a little heaven while on earth! If you would like to experience the life changing power of being born again of the water and the Spirit (John 3:5) and worship that takes off heaviness and allows the Spirit of God to move in your life, then come visit us! Our church is full of people from all walks of life that God has changed, liberated, and delivered! God is no respector of persons; if He did it for us, He will do it for you!
Sis. Sibley is getting better at putt putt!!
