As we get back together, there are a lot of different opinions about how this should be done. There are different conclusions that individuals have come to about the COVID-19 subject. Our heart’s desire is that, we will be very gracious with each other and not cause division by speaking negatively.

 

Please make this a time of encouraging one another with words of life.
