Words from Will
In this e-news I wanted to share with you a personal word about the General Conference in St. Louis. As predicted, it was a very difficult conference and no one is completely sure how what was done there will work out. There were times of great compassion and great pain. One thing for sure, First Church will go on carrying out our mission – spreading God’s love in Jesus Christ to bring hope to the world. Watch this video as a word from my heart to yours.
