Praying in unity with our Latino brothers and sisters
Times can be hard, difficult and very painful. When we see hope fading, uncertainty and fear take over. But when we remember who we are in the Lord, we can find in him the peace, tranquility and rest we need.
We would like to invite you to join us for a service or prayer and worship, walking in unity with our Latino brothers and sisters. Please join us on Saturday, Jan. 31, from 2-4 p.m. at Bloomington Covenant Church, and feel free to invite others as well.
