Second Anniversary - 15 Photos added in Facebook No matter the culture, circumstance or difficulty there is without a doubt a quiet contentment and harmony within a new church celebrating another year serving God.

We are so thankful to Him for guiding our family on furlough and putting so many people along our path that have been such a blessing.
