Happy Independence Day weekend! Well over two centuries ago, our beloved USA declared independence from Great Britain. It was a tenuous time … A time of rebellion, chaos, rioting, and war. Are there similarities to the beginning of the USA and the 21st Century mess we...
I am always super excited to have a missionary with us at LWAG. They are my/our heroes. Tim is particularly suited to do missions work, as he was raised in a missionary home. We, as a church, support his parents financially in their wonderful...
