🎒 Sending Love and Prayers to Our Little Scholars 🎒

As we send our beautiful little humans off to school this week across the Dallas area, may they be filled with courage, hope, and excitement for a year of blessings ahead. 💫

We know that changes in routine, new schools, unfamiliar classrooms, and meeting new friends and teachers can be a big adjustment. Just as we adults feel the anxiety of change, so do our littler ones.

But remember, you are not alone. We love you and are here to help you navigate these changes and any hard times that come your way.

Our hearts are with you, and our prayers are lifting you up for a wonderful, safe, and enriching school year. We’ve got your back! ❤️🙏

So happy and proud of of sister church Market Street United Methodist Church

Asylum seekers who are getting in this country and they don’t have the basic resources for life.
Thanks to the church who received me sunday to talk about Dallas Responds.
I share how my neighborhood shared the goods “all belonged to everyone”
Common good!
Practicing good

“Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”
