The past year of pandemic has taught us that our message is not about politics, prophetic words, vaccines or rights. Our message to a world divided by politics, hatred and racism is LOVE. Our message to a world ravaged by sickness, there is HEALING. Our message to a world filled with loss, there is HOPE. Our message to a world ravaged by sin and addiction there is SALVATION.
Our message now and forever is JESUS!
