Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.                                                                                                                         1 John 3:18

 

   Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. Make level paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.

                                                                                             Hebrews 12:12-13

We are in our capital campaign and covet your prayers. If you know of a church that would be interested, I would love to come and share the vision God gave us and become that church's missionary to the disabled.
