as we go Forward in Hope!
Dear Friends,
After the past 18 months of experiencing the hardships and struggles of the pandemic, we are beginning to witness a glimmer of hope! Our world has been rocked with a great pain of loss and fear, but we have been given a task to be a people of light, a people of hope! God has tasked us to be missionary disciples, going into the world to witness to our neighbors, our sisters and brothers.
