Over the past few months our pastors have been able to minister to many people facing anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts.  For some, hopelessness has set in, and much counseling and help is being given. Praise God for His comfort and for bringing us joy even in our suffering.

Ever since I got back from India people keep asking if India was all that I expected it to be, and every time I have to say, “No.” India was so much more, it blew my mind.

Each year begins with possibilities. Possibilities for God to do more than we could ever imagine, not only in our personal lives but in the lives of our churches, our nation, and the world.

I recently had the chance to visit the Girls Home of Pune on on my first overseas missions trip. The verse “we are the clay, and you our potter” was often on my heart during our team’s two-week stay in India. Above all else, God led me to consciously focus on my relationship with Him as I saw His handiwork all around me.
