 From
the Director -- "Walkway
of the Faithful" A great way to commemorate
your own journey of faith!!!
The Brick Campaign
is well underway and the first bricks will be installed next
week in the covered walkway between the two buildings
at MorningStar. We've only just begun, so consider this
initial walkway of the campaign for your commemorative brick!
It is so easy
to do! Click on the brick and see how easy it is
to make a contribution that will celebrate and commemorate
your own spiritual renewal!
All purchases
are fully tax deductible, and MorningStar is titheing 10%
of all monies raised in the Brick Campaign to retreat ministry
at Agape House in Africa.
In
Jesus, our bright MorningStar
