Miracle Valley Cemetery

Miracle Valley Cemetery is a lovely two acre property that is a part of the ministries at Miracle Valley.

The cemetery is continually mowed and trimmed, a new two inch water line was installed from the main campus to the cemetery by the Melvin Harter Ministries, and plans are being developed for a sprinkling system to be installed that will make Miracle Valley Cemetery one of the loveliest cemeteries in Cochise County, Arizona.

The cemetery is located in Miracle Valley, adjacent to the Miracle Valley Bible College located at 9224 E Hwy 92, between Sierra Vista and Bisbee, Arizona.

It may be reached by driving into the Bible College and then looking for the grove of evergreens to the southwest

If you would like to make a donation to Miracle Valley Cemetery for its improvement, please dial (520) 366-2024.

Plans are being developed for perpetual care of the cemetery.

A Board of Trustees will be apointed for the handling of the cemetery.

A new 2" water line was recently installed to the cemetery.

Plans call for the installation of a sprinkler system, new fence & gates, various signs stating visiting hours, rules & regulations, trees & plants, benches throughout, and beautiful stones with various scriptures leading to Rev. & Mrs. Allen's grave.

Jeanie Evans - Her roots go back to the great Azusa Street Revival during the turn of the Twentieth Century in Los Angeles, CA. She was a Church of God Evangelist (Cleveland, TN) for many years. During her time at Miracle Valley, Sister Evans was in charge of the Pool of Bethseda. The Pool of Bethseda was established by Rev. Allen as a "faith house." Sick people from all over the world would arrive at Miracle Valley, often by landing their airplanes at the Miracle Valley Airport, and then stay in the Pool of Bethseda where Sister Evans would teach them on the subject of Faith. Prayer and hymns were offered to the sick people as well. When their faith grew, they would be taken into the large tabernacle, up the ramp where Rev. Allen would offer prayer for them. Many of these individuals received a miracle and were instantly made whole of their sickness or disease.
