Greetings Faithful Disciples!
I hope you have “seen the Lord.” Awed and amazed, I hope you are running to tell others the “Good News” that Christ is risen! You may certainly share this “Good News” with a donation to the Regional Church!
The Regional Church needs your generous financial support to continue to equip and empower others to tell this amazing story of God’s love and grace which is for everyone. Here is a glimpse of how your gifts are working to make a difference within the Regional Church.
