agree wholeheartedly with our founder John Wesley when he stated, “the
world is my parish.” “ Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble…” James 1: 27 (a&b) If our family can be of assistance to you or your family, please do not hesitate to contact us either by phone or e mail, and if you are in need of pastoral assistance, just give me call, I’d be glad to help in anyway I can. Grace and Peace, Pastor
Mike
