    A message of encouragement to remind us that salvation through Christ provides us with a living hope for today as well as for our future.

    I was reading through the news on the Internet this past week – as is my regular habit, and I came across a most interesting article. According to the article, it has been reported that there are aliens living among us. One of the witnesses quoted in this article says that there may be hundreds ...read more
