RVC | Praise & Worship

Hello! We are the worship band for our church; The Rio Vista Church of the Nazarene in Albuquerque, NM. We love music and more important we love the Lord, our Savior.

Our ministry has allowed us and our church to come together as a family singing and praising God. We want to invite you to join us!

We are thankful and humbled by the grace of God for allowing us to serve Him through music. We like to invite you to our Church so that you too experience the miracle of corporate worship.

Music is a gift from God that allows us to have a closer relationship with Him. It is a spiritual language that communicates our deepest praises to our creator.

I am honored to introduce to you the

Can help each individual say to God things they might not normally verbalize or hear.”

It’s a magical thing to be able to use it to glorify God, is the best.”	Liza Mendoza Bass & Vocals “Worship through music is a way that we can express our love and gratitude to God.”	Ken Mathis Drums “Music makes me feel better when things are not going well.
