STORIES FROM THE FOUNDATION

I just wanted to let you know that my brother who lives in Miami has accepted Christ and God is transforming his life. He has struggled with drug and alcohol addiction since he was 15 years old -  he is now 39.

October 23, 2008 I wrote many names down on the worship center floor, and one of them was Jenny's.
