Welcome to
Iglesia VIDA (LIFE Church)
Iglesia VIDA is a Spanish church locaed in its new facilities at 211 Waldo Street Metairie, LA 70003. As well as having involvement with Victory Fellowships outreaches and specific Spanish outreaches. Iglesia Vida is composed of a variety of people from different Hispanic countries, united with the purpose of exalting our Lord Jesus Christ, and to bring the loving message of the Gospel to our beloved community. Iglesia Vida ministers to the community throughout a variety of outreaches and ministries. We believe that there is a place for everyone in God’s Kingdom; our desire is that everyone would find their place in the wonderful family of God. In 2003 Iglesia VIDA started a Sunday church service in the Life Center gym of Victory Fellowship. This allowed us to grow and form a full functioning Spanish church complete with discipleship group, church leadership, small home groups, worship ministries, children’s church, ESL classes, men’s, women and youth ministries. In October 2005, post Katrina, we moved the Iglesia Vida to Victory Fellowship’s, newly acquire facility in the heart of New Orleans (Broad St. Mission in Mid City). On May 14th 2006 (Mother’s day) we moved the Spanish church with about 40 members. This was the start of a new season for the Spanish church with an opportunity of reaching out to the immense influx of Hispanics that came to work in the recovery of our city. We have also assisted with the assemblies of God to open other new Spanish churches in the New Orleans area.
No Other God
Read Exodus 32:1 through 34:35
“Wow! I wish I could sing like her.” Kelsy beamed as she yelled her dreams to her mom standing next to her. They’d managed to snag front row tickets to see a tween rocker in concert. The music blared and lights danced rhythmically, enhancing the fantasy. It was going perfectly until the scantily clad male dancers joined the starlet on stage.
Kelsey’s face mirrored the shock her mom felt, whose cheeks flushed first with embarrassment, then with anger. In an instant, the teen idol turned two fans cold and left an image carved in their hearts that would take much time to fade.
Idols come in many forms—people and things.
Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go down, because your people... have become corrupt. They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf” (Exodus 32:7,8).
Anything can quickly take the place of God if we are not careful. But before God takes steps to discipline us, we can search our hearts for any idols we have set up. Then we can repent and rededicate our lives to the Lord.
Prayer for Today: Lord, help me give my heart to You alone.
