Praying for the community

by Valeria Cortés | June 28, 2024 1:00 PM

We couldn't finish our week of ministry without praying over this community. Is been an honor serving here and meeting wonderful people.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.


Numbers 6: 24 - 26 NIV
