And yet....

On March 16, 2014, every parent’s nightmare phone call came to our home when a police officer informed us that our 25-year old daughter, Jenica, had been in a horrific car accident and flown to the hospital. She had sustained several life-threatening injuries including severe head trauma.  What followed was a mix of agonizing fear, raw lament, and confounding hope...
That's an excerpt from a publication called Breaking Barriers. Jenica Groot-Nibbelink will be preaching in our church on Sunday, Nov 12, 10:00 a.m.  Her message is from Lamentations 3.  Verse 24 says, "Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope.  I will be reading her message at our 8:30 a.m. First Light service at WilsonHub.  Please join us for either service.
