“My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism.” (James 2:1 NIV)


 

CHILDREN & YOUTH

We share our time and resources to serve the physical and spiritual needs of individuals and communities.

 

“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” (Matthew 25:40 NIV)
