My God by Rachel Pruett Have you ever had a thought that you just cannot wrap your mind around? For me, I cannot get beyond the fact that the God who spoke the universe into existence knows me by name! Is that not an incredible thought? It is absolutely amazing that I can have a […]
Reflections on “Blessing” by Rachel Pruett, Women’s Ministry Director Thank you for praying for our Greece trip.
