March 2021

Welcome back and thank you for stopping by. The Lord encourages us to pray each day. We know it pleases him when we go to him in prayer on behalf of someone else who is suffering the loss of someone they love very much.

We are thankful for you coming along side of us as we pray for strength and comfort for LODD families. And that God would make a way for them to bear up after such a devastating loss. God bless you!
