Our Salvation Story
This year as Jesus journeys to the cross and empty grave, he will tell us the stories of our salvation. Since the very beginning, God has gotten involved in human lives. Jesus grew up hearing these stories, forming his faith in God. Jesus’ living, dying, and rising makes this saving God’s love your story! Thank you for being part of the journey.
