• Once again, thank you, brothers and sisters, for actively taking part in fundraising and volunteering for God’s house—our church. May the Lord Himself reward you for all your hard work. We would also like to extend a special thank-you to Carolyn, the administrator of Toronto Pet Group, for sponsoring the banner for our walkathon fundraiser.
