Family Promise House



                        
Last Friday's Family Promise groundbreaking service was well attended. Not only was there grand fellowship but we were blessed by several very significant gifts which will advance our work at the house. Jon Powers' Lakota blessing was very moving. Praise God!!  Yep, that is Pastor Pete up on the porch!
