evil with good.

Devotional during our regular 11:00 a.m. morning worship service led by

A
MESSAGE FROM LISA!
"It is my
mission to support and work with volunteers to provide meaningful,
spiritual and educational activities for the children and youth of our
church.
Growing in
numbers is a blessing, but growing in grace and knowledge and spreading
the love and grace of Jesus Christ is the goal of our ministry. It is
our hope that in teaching the Word and sharing God's love with the
children, they will receive the blessing of the community and accept
Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior so that they will live a life that
will glorify God!
Our
programs are designed to develop relationships with one another and with
God so that we can move toward the goal of loving one another and loving
God.
Blessings, Lisa"
