	<description>Valley Kingdom Ministries International is a WORD church , a WORKING church and a WORSHIP church. Our mantra is we are a kingdom ministry that is advancing the kingdom for the king. VKMI is a Kingdom-minded, cutting edge ministry that moves in the apostolic anointing and marketplace evangelism. “The Valley” as we are affectionately called, is a blessed church that operates out of two locations in the south suburban area of Chicago. Our praise and worship is headed by the Double Gold Award ministry Shekinah Glory, who brought you such songs as “Praise Is What I Do”, “How Deeply I Need You“, “Yes” and “Jesus”.</description>
