Mission & Justice
WORLD SERVANTS FOR CHRIST
May God’s peace and promise sustain and encourage you, and fill you with joy as we see new growth and healing around us. Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness (Lamentations 3:23).
