Passport2Purity….

Creative ideas…

that have blessed our ministry greatly.  While we were back in the states, we were invited to the Morlan’s house for a 5-course mexican dinner.  This family invites people into their home (groups, families, & couples) and prepares a wonderful meal for them to enjoy.  Whatever is given to the Morlan’s for their scrumptious meal […]
