  • Let Us Continue to Pray Without Ceasing, Especially During These Times..........

    Matthew 24:6-7 NKJV:

    "And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places".
