Message from the President

Greetings from the Kansas District. We are glad you are here and pray that you will be blessed by something here to help you “bear fruit that will last”!
To God be the Glory!
Elaine Engelman, President
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. John 15:16
