Tell the World
Fellow Christian, have you ever heard that small and quiet voice speak to you? When doing something wrong, have you heard that quiet voice let you know that it is wrong? Have you listened, truly listened? Have you awakened in the night to hear God’s voice?

Thanksgiving 2020
Our Christian nature envelops thanksgiving daily and not just one day for we made rich in every way and, in return, be generous on every occasion so that generosity will result in thanksgiving to God who made us rich in every way.
