Growth in perfection and grace

I will console you in your pains

“If you stay close to my Sorrowful Heart, I will defend you in your spiritual battles with the devil and I will protect you in every instant of your life.

The grain of faith

Testimonial: Dorothy fell back in love with God through the Women of Grace Foundational Study
“I was invited by two beautiful women to attend the Women of Grace study group in October. At first, I was hesitant to say yes, so I prayed about it. I spoke to the Lord and said to him, if I say yes to joining this study, I will need you to remove the worldly obstacles out of my path. Little did I know my prayer was going to be answered that fast.
