People matter to God. You matter to us.
We are all about seeing Christ ALIVE in us and others! This can happen as simply as the gentle hand of a friend, a comforting hug, a listening ear or a kind act. Sometimes it even comes as a few kind words like,
"I understand", "It's okay", "How about a cup of coffee?"
