Thank you for joining us as we worship the Lord Jesus. We hope that you would entertain the thought that God is madly in love with you. We want you to know that not only do we welcome you, God welcomes you into His Sanctuary. His Sanctuary is not a building or organization. His Sanctuary is people, that at least a little, have begun to trust in His Love. God is Love.
