Lost and Found Hope

January 7, 2023 By Verna Bowman 1 Comment

At the beginning of each new year, hopes are high.  It's the January mix of thinking we can do what we set out to do - it's tricky how a calendar page can be that powerful.  But the real power is the hope we have with the beginning of a new day or in the darkest night because of the coming of Christ.

We are surrounded every day by those carrying the heaviness of life in need of a thousand prayers. Maybe you've had lunch with a few of them.  I have.

Welcome

Grace to all . . . Every one of us has a story and mine took a holy turn when the Father leaned down to mend a broken child. Rescued during a desperate time as a young wife … read more
