1Cor. 12:25
"there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. "
John 3:16
Whosoever you are...we pray for you twice a week in our weekly prayer meetings. We ask God to specifically remember people who love Jesus, and have been told that HIS blood is lacking enough power to save them. Jesus loves you too!
