Thanking Our Pastors

PASTORS WHO GIVE AND LIVE THE WORD

Our motto, “The best script is Scripture,” has been inspired by pastors and spouses who have supported us through prayer, teaching, verbal and monetary encouragement. While 2020 has limited our face-to-face time, we pause to thank not only ways these friends have shaped our vision over time, but have modelled how to navigate personal and ministry changes this year.
