Word A Live! Family Church

Today's Inspiration

"And it is he who gifted some to be apostles, others to be prophets, others to be evangelists, and still others to be pastors and teachers, to perfect the saints, to do the work of ministry, and to build up the body of Christ until all of us are united in the faith and in the full knowledge of God's Son, and until we attain mature adulthood and the full standard of development in Christ." (Ephesians 4:11-13)

Greetings!

Pastors Mike & Sandra Chipchase have an Apostolic Ministry, with a vision to equip believers for the many works of the ministry. They faciliate conferences targeted to equip the saints, as well as facilitating Regional Revival Meetings bringing repentance, restoration, healing, deliverance. They are available to come to your church or facility to teach and preach. They do Prophetic and Apostolic Seminars (Schools of the Holy Spirit), as well as Leadership Training to equip the Saints.

Our Pastors have lived in this area for 33 years, and have been in the ministry for over 25 years. Before pioneering Word-A-Live! Church, Pastor Sandra served in Women's Aglow in Grass Valley for 18 years; Pastor Mike served in Full-Gospel Business men for 10 years. They attended New Life Assembly of God in Olivehurst, under the leadership of Pastors David & Joan Hood, and were mentored there in the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Sandra traveled ministering to churches in Northern California and established Word-A-Live! Ministries.

She had a vision to pioneer a church in the Penn Valley Area. Even though, Pastor Mike Chipchase

relunctantly came on board (he was a late bloomer) with the Vision as Pastor Sandra began to pioneer the church now known as Word-A-Live Church. The church first started in the Buttermaker's Cottage in the Western Gateway Park in Penn Valley. They both had a vision for the 5 fold Ministry being established and equipping the saints of God.

When they became acquainted with Christian International, the church was pioneered as a "Christian International" Church in the area, since there were no prophetic ministries in the Sacramento area at the time. This vision was fulfilled 17 years ago with the birth of Word-A-Live! Family Church.

They have a heart for the prophetic and apostolic call on "The Church". Our Pastors want to see the Body of Christ mature, prepared as the "spotless bride" for the end times, and will preach an uncompromising Word of Truth. Although this is a time where the Church in America is being infiltrated with cultural influences and a "feel good" psychologically-friendly message, their message remains prophetic, clear and strong.

Pastors Mike & Sandra & Word-A-Live! believe that the Holy Spirit will operate in our lives and do miracles (marvelous things); but we have to recognize Him as a Person and Let Him In. We can, through our own choice, shut out the Holy Spirit. Christianity is not a Club or a Religion. It is a Relationship with our Heavenly Father, The Lord Jesus Christ - the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit - our Guide. We are called to live a Holy Life. We cannot live like Hell and claim to be a Christian. God is looking for the real thing. The Five Fold Ministry will flow through this church on a consistent basis (the Apostle, Prophetic, Teacher, Evangelist, and Pastors).

Both Pastors operate in the prophetic and both teach and preach the uncompromising Word of God.

Pastor Sandra is a graduate of Christian International Bible College with her Bachelors in Theology. Both are Bible teachers and move with the prophetic gifts of God.
