2010 GRANT RECIPIENT TOTAL

$When you put your trust in Jesus Christ, the Bible says that that you actually become a new person. A transformation happens in your inner being. This happens as God’s Spirit comes into our lives and frees us from sinful habits so that we can become the glorious people God created us to be. The Bible puts it like this: “where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we . . . are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory.” Here you’ll find tools to help you along the journey.f.00
