CATCHING UP Since it’s been awhile since I’ve written, there is a lot to catch up with. “Thank you Thunder Mountain!” Lori’s Place. Did you know that the conviction rate for sex crimes soars from 20% to over 90% when Lori’s Place gets involved? When Mike and...
Word from the Lord? After we stopped gathering physically, the Lord led us to do a series we couldn’t have done “live” four times a weekend, and this lasted an additional six weeks. When we “reopened” on May 30-31 (after being exclusively online for ten...
