Lifeline week is here!

This week we’ll hear a lot about being ‘Made for These Days!’

Lord, please renew our confidence that we are in the right place at the right time, and you have called us by name!  We were born to shine bright in the darkness…and we don’t have to be discouraged or afraid. This world needs the hope inside of us, so let us echo Paul’s letter in Galatians, to not become weary in doing good, for in the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Name something with a siren.
