We feel called to carry out the Good News for current and future generations, and we want to use our spiritual gifts to serve others as faithful stewards of God’s grace. Our goal is to teach God’s children to know and love Him with their whole hearts so they can tell the next generation of the greatness of God. And we want you to join us in shaping futures we can be proud to share, while honoring God in all we do.
