A BIG THANK YOU to all who helped make our Families Moving Forward guests welcome. We had three families with us all week, and they were such loving folks. Many volunteers helped, and I extend my personal gratitude to Marilyn DeMarais and Mary Gormley who coordinate this program and kept us all very organized. We will be having a sign-up again for our February week sometime before Christmas. Consider this ministry; you'll be glad you did! 

"This is what Yahweh asks of you: only this, to act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly with your God."
